Run down of first app !

Well I went to my app. today and met with the dietitian, behavioral specialist and nurse. Filled out papers went over RNY bypass. Weighed me and took my height. 326.5 and lil over 5'6 no shoes on.

The nurse thinks things should go by pretty fast for me. She thinks the insurance will be very easy to work with and they don't require a 6 month diet and since I hvae weigh****cher records then it shouldn't be a problem. And I'm over the BMI of 35 and have high blood pressure. I will have to attend a weight loss class and do a 2 week diet before surgery to try and shrink liver. I also have to have a scope ran down in my stomache and a gallbladder ultra sound to see if theres stones or not. If there happens to be stone then I gotta have it removed. I also have to have a current pap . My app is tom ! I have also had my required lab work done. I did that today since I hadn't eaten anything. They told me after the dr looks over every thing he will decide if i have to have a stress test. If things go smoothly we are all hoping to have surgery the 1st or 2nd week of Oct. durning my son's fall break !

So I'm hoping things will be scheduled quickly.

I think you may have meant to post this on the RNY message board - but instead you posted it on the Recipe message board.
