Hi everyone, I live in Sodus, NY (which is between Rochester and Syracuse). Just wondering if anyone here is near me. I really would like to start a personal support group but can't find a single person in my area.

Thanks, Barb

I love Ithica! We go to the falls all the time. Im just waiting for the last step...metting w/surgeon.

You've already gone through all of the processes then? Why is meeting your surgeon the last step? It was my first. ??

I'm in the Saratoga area - upstate, but still kinda far from you guys...

I had to go through the nutritionist ,psyc evaluation, clinical psycologist. Then after you are released from them then about 2 weeks before your surgery you meet with the surgeon.
