Wow! That was enlightening. We haven't met yet Dawn but until I had to start working so much on Thursdays, I was with the Thursday night group -- of course then it was just Lori, Susann, Britt and me. I'm going to Dr. Byrne also -- having a few insurance issues but hope they will be resolved soon. Have you heard Dr. Byrne speak of the dye test during the surgery? I don't recall that. I think they do a swallow/leak test before you are released but this dye test during the procedure sounds like a good idea to me. The procedure looks a little more involved that I imagined -- but better to be informed! Thanks again. Dollie Pilson

GLAD TO MEET YOU MS DOLLIE! NICK & I SURE HOPE IT IS REAL SOON THAT YOU GET TO JOIN US AGAIN. WE HAVE A GREAT (ROWDY) GROUP NOW! NO, I DIDN'T HEAR DR B TALK ABOUT THE BLUE DYE TEST ... I'M GONNA ASK ABOUT THAT ... I THOUGHT THAT WAS A PRETTY SMART MOVE! IT SEEMS EITHER BC/BS IS INSTANTANEOUS ON APPROVALS OR, THE BIGGEST "PITA" ... I DON'T THINK ANYONE HAS MORE TROUBLE THAN THOSE WITH CERTAIN BC/BS POLICIES. I DON'T KNOW WHAT MS SUSANN DID TO GET HERS MOVING, BUT YOU NEED TO TALK TO HER! GOD BLESS YOU DAWN & NICK

That was informative. I couldn't really watch during the second segment because I am very weak stomached. Thank God I will be knocked out during that part of the process. Denise
