Meeting my surgeon today
Well I'm meeting my surgeon, Dr. McDowell, for the first time today. I think by the time I leave I will have a surgery date set and will begin my two week liquid diet. I want to thank all of you for your posts. I feel I am well prepared with questions and information. I haven't posted much, but have been reading what you guys have to say. I will let you know if I will be a July Bandster!!!
I have a date!! July 15th!! I love Dr. McDowell!! In addition to changing surgeons I have made another change. I'm going to have the Gastric Bypass instead of the LapBand. The more we talked the more I decided that was the right choice for me. After we left my husband told me he was in agreement with me, but he wanted it to be totally my decision, so he kept quite until I had made by decision. I will have 6 instead of 5 incisions and will have to stay in the hospital 2 nights instead of 1. I know there are many other differences and will do a lot more reading before the 15th. Get ready to make room on the loser's bench for one more!
