How did it go! I wish I knew you were going to be in town, I would have met you. Please call if you need someone to talk to (360-7833) the next time you are in town. Let us know how it went.
Topic: RE: Today's the Day!!
I know it's probably post-consult, but I'm hoping all went great!
Please post how it went after you return home, I have my consultation on 7/18 and I know I will be nervous as well. Tanya

Ruth Ann Topic: Today's the Day!!
Well, it's only my consult but I am soooo nervous. I've been an emotional roller coaster about this decision, and then reading my husband's support letter, , I'm a mess!!! I am going to the appt. alone, I live 75 miles from Sioux Falls, and my appt. is not until 3:30, so a whole day of being a basket case!!! Sorry, I'm just venting, I see this South Dakota forum is pretty darn slow anyway!

Topic: RE: 7 Month Update
Hi had questions about your Dr. did you like him and the care you got at the hospital in RC. I have a friend who also had him and thought he was great. I am thinking going in for a consult with him on the surgery. Did you have to have all pre- consult visits (nutritionists etc) even before seeing the DR? I want this to work and i am determined to get the best Dr. That why all the questions.
Thanks

Topic: 7 Month Update
Well it has been quite awhile since I have been on here. Things have just been crazy. Anyway I thought I would give you all an update. I had open Gastric Bypass December 5th 2006. July 5th I will be 7 months out. To date I have lost 93 lbs. Yay! I would still like to lose another 50 ish. Anyway I would like to thank you all for your support!~
Topic: RE: Does anyone have DakotaCare insurance?
I also have DakotaCare, I think each policy is different though. My DakotaCare only pays for 50% of weight loss surgery, to pay this amount they request that you have a BMI over 40 and 6 months of doctor supervised diet. Have you talked with a surgeon yet? I went to a class this week and it sounds like they can work around alot of the insurance requirements, the insurance just wants to try to discourage people from having the surgery (my opinion).
