Hey neighbor,
How are your feeling? I have 6 more weeks of pre op diet. Just got my labwork back and everything is within normal limits. Haven't gotten the results of my EKG, but I imagine (hope) all will be fine there too. When I get closer to finishing up the diet portion, I just have to visit with the NUT and possibly exercise physiologist, and I think everything will be in the hands of the insurance.
I can't imagine why the insurance would deny me. The psychologist and my PCP say I am an excellent candidate for WLS. My only health concerns are arthritis in my knees and shoulders and back pain. Clearly I can't lose weight on my own or I would have done it.
Anyway, I am glad I found you all and look forward to being on the losers bench very soon.

Yes it is fairly large but if you park in the southern most parking lot (I will have to let you know the lot number) and go to the 5th floor. There are usually signs leading you to the correct room. They have a clothing exchange in case you are looking for something or have something to share. I can't wait to meet you.

Hi Pete I'm also from Austin and I definitely intend on being there. What is the name of the group.? Isn't St Davids a huge place, how do I find the meeting?
I used Dr. Dana Reiss. She operates at Methodist Specialty and Transplant hospital in SA, which was considered a center of excellence according to my insurance (UHC). They recently changed the name of the wls clinic but I believe it's called Methodist Weight Loss. It's located in Physician's Plaza I which is literally connected to the hospital, so it's very convenient and Dr. Reiss visited me several times while I was in the hospital after surgery.
Kyzze and all from Austin . The next meeting will be 4/25 at 6:00 in theSt. David's Medical building.
