It's gonna happen Nov. 30th
Come on EVERYONE do the HAPPY DANCE!!! 
I just got off the phone with my plastic surgeons office, my hernia repair and panniculectomy is scheduled for Thursday, November 30th. They could have scheduled for Monday, Nov. 20th but the WLS surgeon has clinic on Mondays, I was like well with what she has put me through the past 2 years she should cancel her clinic!!!
So that means Henrietta's Goodbye Party will be over Thanksgiving weekend...I wonder if I can convience her the parade is just for her? 
Update to those who might not have known...after returning from the OH event in Lexington and having the oppertunity there to attend 2 sessions of WLS revisions and learn the stastitical risks, etc. I decided to instead proceed with the panniculectomy and hernia repair I already had approved. My appeal for the revision had been denied anyway, so I was going to have to fight BCBS even more.

Sarah - I'm so happy for you! Who are you using?
11/30 - is my 1 yr anniversary!
I wish you all the best.
Did you visit Vickie? If so, how's she coming along?
I'm feeling alot better - although last night was tough - Those pain killers help in the beginning but have a nasty side effect, if you know what I mean!
Take care

It sounds flike you have had a major deal. I just joined this website and live in Lakeland Florida. I have a large ventral hernia and panniculus. I cannot find a doctor who does both. I wonder if you could give me some leads. I only can find a surgeon who does hernia repairs. I didn't realize I could have both done at the same time. Could you tell me who your doctors are if you are comfortable with them. Good luck
