Consult-getting band

  • I had my consult at the surgeons office today and I'm going to proceed with getting gastric band surgery. I still need to do the psych consult. But I'm really looking forward to getting it all done and moving on with my life. I lost my father to pancreatic cancer last month and my baby daughter is 9 months old. I really need to get a grip on my life and finally live it.
    Looking for any support from other Banders!
  • not a bander but support I can do! Good luck and be dogged and presistant! You're right, it's your life and you have to find some way to live it and live it well!

  • Good luck sweetie we're here for you.
  • oh honey - you've had quite a lot of changes recently - many sympathies on the loss of your father.

    we're here for ya, darlin! congrats on making a decision! that's often the hardest part.

    what's next for you in this process?
  • Thanks for the support. Well my next step is the psych eval which I'm nervous about. But then they should start trying to go through approval with insurance I have 2 insurances so hopefully that all goes well.
