Hello Wisconsin

Ok first a lil about me...My name is Avri and I will be 29 in august. I am married with no kids and LOTS of cats and dogs. I decided to do WLS a couple years ago and just started the process in December. My surgery is scheduled for July 16th and will be held in Stevens Point being done by Dr. Selwyn. I attended one support group in Point as a step towards the surgery but am afraid that I need to go to more. The problem is, is that I live in Wausau and my car would be lucky to make it to Mosinee. So attending the support group in Point is not an option because I do not know how I would get there. Even though I will not be having my surgery thru Aspirus is it possible to attend a support group in Wausau? Is there even a WLS support group here in Wausau? Help! I have no one to talk to that has or is going through what I am and I am stressing myself out thinking I am not as prepared for surgery as I should be.

welcome!!  I don't know about support groups in Wausa.... try to google it? To be perfectly honest with you.. I learned a lot of information from talking to the post ops on here.  We are all here to support each other.  They have a forum for each forum and everyone is hugely supportive and willing to share their personal experiences.  Feel free to message us with anything!

Check with Marshfield Clinic.  They have support great support groups and they can help you find one.
