I had to have a referral to get a consultation with the surgeon. I approached my PCP--the young skinny punk--He did not want to do it, so I spoke with my psychiatrist and after a long session said he would be glad to do it, if the surgeon accepted it, well he did, and I am scheduled for 10-3-03.
. so we will see, and Granny I agree with Jiffy, I would be in 7th heaven if I could be your starting weight--isn't that the way though, every thing is relative.
