Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass  |  Encouragement Needed Please Today I have my first appointment with the coordinator for the bypass at Kaiser. What questions should I make sure I ask? Anyone else have the surgery through Kaiser? What should I expect at this appointment? I am sooooo nervous. I just hate feeling like a sloth...I want to be healthy again. Please someone, give me some encouragement.  colosn0w

Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery. Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.  |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass    |  HI my only advice to use is listen carefully.... and ask questions as they arrise. I know for me i had to attend an information seminar first were i learned everything about the surgery and was able to ask questions as the seminar presentation was given by my surgeon. AFTER that i had my first consult appointment. ITs a great journey, i am not familar with that surgical group ....but maybe someone else is. IF you forget to ask questions that pop into your mind after your meeting feel free to come back here and post the questions and im sure everyone will give you feed back ! WELCOME and i look forward to getting to know you thru your posts.

Height: | Hey I hope that your appointment doesn't frighten you too much, but leaves you very informed. My advice is ask anything even remotely causing you cause to wonder. If you don't feel comfy asking the doc, ask here first and then we will give you our experience followed by check with your doc...lol. Janae |
