Aloha from Hawaii

Hi Everyone,
I keep getting this reminder that I haven't posted since I registered, so I better come out of the "lurking closet".

Soon, I hope to get an op date. I have waited since September 2007 to get this far. I have one more appt with a consulting doc and with a nutritionist, then I get the final eval. My insurance is with Kaiser and they have a very long grueling process. I hope it happens before Christmas.

I'm glad I found this forum because I have been reading about problems, solutions, and daily living with the LB that I wouldn't have thought of. I appreciate the openness, too.

I'm very excited and anxious about this, but looking forward to getting an resemblance of the old me back.

Glad to be here!

Hi there and welcome! It sounds like you are getting close to a date. I know dealing with the insurance companies can be a pain, but if they cover the cost of your surgery, then it is definitely worth it in the end. Let us know when you get a date.
