Hi there!

I've just finished my pathway section and now have an appointment to see the surgeon next week.  My seminar was in July but now I've heard the list is getting through faster.  I don't know about removing yourself from the list, I would not worry about it.  They seem to be on top of where everyone is in the process.  Unless the surgeon convinces me otherwise, I'm interested in having the VSG, I see you are wanting the band.  Good luck to you and I'll be looking for your posts on progress.

Hi there! Not doing pathways, had Group Health, but wanted to wish you luck on your surgery! You mention Navy Hospital, so I'm assuming you are a Kitsap person!

Good luck,
Take Care,
Hugs,

Hi, I had my surgery at Madigan too.

Tips, well, research, research, research! Ask tons of questions you may have to your surgeon, and again, research! LOL

Hope your time flies by!!!!
