The Decision
Oct 17, 2010
Well after waiting almost 7 months, I finally have completed all requirements for surgery... well... almost. Thursday is my final appointment with my pcp and then in the afternoon i finally get to meet with the surgeon!!!!! I'm Excited... Nervous...Anxious... and TORN! I'm completely torn between the RNY and Lapband. I originally decided on the lapband and everything i did for the last 7 months was in preparation for the lapband... but after being on this site and basically looking at the ratio of RNY to lapband, im stumped! I hope i figure this out by Thursday! But other than that... Im super excited at this life altering change coming my way! I have so much faith in myself and i know it will all work out for the best.Im just seeing so many negatives in my life changing into positives after this surgery...
I guess my next hurdle is to be approved by the insurance.
Can any one tell me what happens when i first meet my surgeon? Should i have a list of questions? Should he provide me with information on past surgeries he has done? Can any one help me and let me know what should i have prepared for THURSDAY?
