CONGRATS!!!!

Congrats!! I am tentatively scheduled for October 3rd as well. This morning I did my nicotine blood test, and had my EGD done. Once my nicotine labs come back I can be submitted to insurance.. Then it's just 2 visits with the fitness training guy and the rest of the pre- op stuff. As long as all goes as planned (which it typically seems not to lol) I will revise from Lap Band to Bypass the same day as you:) Are you revising from Lap Band as well? Best of luck to you!!

I am revising from lapband to rny :) My lapband is sitting on my esophagus and it is killing me so I can't wait until it is out of me!  I hope all your preop goes well and we get to start this journey together :)
