Sorry...guess I should have introduced myself

After I re-read my urgent post, I realized...DUH These people don't even know me. LOL I'm Tina, and I've been looking into the lap-band with Dr Curry since July 05. My sister and I decided to go through this together. She just registed under the user name JulieK. She's already banded and I'm just here waiting and waiting. I've got Great West Insurance, so I have to do the lovely 6 month supervised diet. I'm required to go to my PCP and a nutritionist, so I've been seeing Erin at Dr Curry's I'm now on my 6th month and it appears that there's major problems with Deaconess and Dr Curry's office. So, that's my intro. I'd love to meet some new friends. Tina

Tina Hi I'm Michael and Dr curry is my doctor also Dr curry and his staff is super you couldn't ask for better care. good luck to you Michael

Tina, I'm sooooo sorry that you are having to go through this. I hope things work out for you! Try contacting Dr. Curry personally. HUGS! Erin

Tina, I had the lap-band with Dr. C last June. If there are any questions that I can help with, please feel free to email me. I still have the handbook that Erin gave me sitting next to the computer. You've got the best team in the state. Things will be straightened soon. Cathy P

You are in the BEST hands around... please feel free to email Cathy or me anytime. We do lunch once a month with a bunch of bandsters - you should join us sometime! And apparently candid discussions are not permitted on this board since my post to you below was deleted... Everything will be great once Dr. C. is in his new office, just hang tight! GOOD LUCK! Melissa

um... okay, I'm losing my mind. Please disregard the deleted post comment!! I blame it on the baby, it's stealing my brain!!

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome! I'm sure I'll be contacting all of you at one time or another! Tina
