 Hi. I'm 31, single, no kids and on the road to getting the DS surgery. I'm looking for anyone who wants to chat about the ups and downs of the ride. I have Kaiser and just had my orientation yesterday in Fremont. I have my meeting with the surgeon/nutritionist/clinical coordinator next month where I'll be asking for the DS so I can go through the appeals process since Kaiser doesn't do it.

Hi,

My name is Stephanie.  I am 36, married with a 10 year old daughter and 2 step sons age 16 and 17.  I live in Santa Rosa and i also have Kaiser.  I'm having the RNY on August 19th in South San Francisco.  I am delayed 6 weeks due to sleep apnea.  I have lost 20 pre-op pounds and have 10 to go.  My next steps are all pre-op stuff.  Metting with anesthesia, chest x-ray, final blood work, anoither meeting with surgeon. Pre op class.  It would be great to have a Pal through all this.  Send me a message if you are interested.  I can give you my cell phone number and email and we can text or talk.  Have a great day.

Stephanie
