Guest guest Posted March 24, 2004 Report Share Posted March 24, 2004 Hi Terri, Wow! Seems like Kaiser has added a new wrinkle - nonetheless you are nearly there. I look forward to seeing you post a surgery date. BTW I'm glad that you've come out of lurkdom - I hope that you find this group as helpful as I have. Feel free to ask anything or just to express how you're feeling. Take care, Kay open RNY 12/1/03 Terri wrote: Greetings, I've been a lurker for a few weeks and I truly appreciate the valuable info you all have provided. I've attended a couple of support groups at Kaiser - Oakland & Richmond, also very valuable. Today I went in for a weight check in Richmond and was delighted to find that I'm 3.5 # from goal. I expected to get a surgical date today or very soon but the policy seems to have changed since orientation in late February.( The next step now is to schedule with the nurse practioner to review the binder for understanding. I'll do that on March 6 and then see the surgeon on March 7. Following the surgical appt., a date will be set. I'm trying hard to be patient and know that the next 2 weeks will pass.
