There are quite a group of us going to DePaul. Have you gone to a seminar there yet John? My DH and I went last week and it was extremely informative. DH was quite concerned about he procedure and now he is 100% on board for me to have it. The staff at the WLI are great. Welcome aboard.

I hope to be at that support group meeting. It depends on if I can talk DD into driving me there. It pretty much depends on how I feel.

City: Saint Louis State: MO | Meeting on the 20th
I will not be at the support group on the 20th due to the fact of what time they hold it and traffic getting there. I wish I had the time to get there. As far as getting a fill on March 6th- I go at 8:50 am. I will be on the look out for other bandsters. Later-- StlouisGal-- how did your surgery go? http://tickers.tickerfactory.com/ezt...6dR/weight.png | |

I'm home and banded. Hospital experience was great! Not a lot of pain, just achy and hard to get up and down. Only needed a couple of doses of pain killer so I think I'm doing pretty good. If I can get a ride to the support group meeting I'll be there. Not sure I'll be up to driving by then. I think DD will bring me.

Getting the insurance paperwork sent, accepted, approved, etc. is the worst part of the whole deal. It took the Dr's office three weeks to send mine because they were looking into things. I guess that is to make sure the surgery is safe. That is why DePaul has such an excellent record I think. Call them about once a week to make sure you aren't on a desk somplace forgotten.
Take care!

My name is Pat. I think I have it worked out so I can be there. DD had a meeting she can't get out of until six so DH is going to have to forgo church this one time unless I decide I can drive myself. As good as I feel right now that is a good possibility.
Where is it? The May Center?

Did you guys go tonight.
I was there. It was packed not a seat in the house. I was surprised. All the other ones I went to only had maybe 20 people.

Yes, I was there, sitting along the back wall. Sorry I didn't catch up with you. I thought it was pretty interesting even though I don't typically like such large crowds. I wish they would split it into a support group for bands and bypass.
