well i went to medford to see DR randall today..first off i have to say they are very nice..i went to check in i was so nervous,nurse sent me down for my bloodwork,i came back and waited to be seen by the doctor,talk to a few post-ops very friendly people and told me i picked a great doctor..so that was some reassurance..well once in the room he asked me some stuff he weighed me and omfg i couldnt belive really how big i am..i was 30lbs bigger then i thought,but he says there is no reason why i wont get approved and thats great news to hear but he did say with my insurance being medicaid through welfare it could take 6 months to get approved and he also said that i wont benefit from the lap band so i think he said its open rny..i know there are so many terms,so basically he told me not to gain anymore,and quit smoking,so tomorow i have to schedule my nutrionist appts..call my family therapist and see if she can give me letter of recomendation once i get that letter then i would of done my home work lol...oh and i have to attend one meeting next month which is run by the doctor himself..so i guess i can say i am starting my journey i know there is so much ...but i go back to see him in a month so hopefully i will have that letter by then.....
