This is about my journey into the land of Lap-Band. After struggling with my weight for all of my adult life, I have decided to do finally something about it. My Surgery Date was December 11, 2009

RE: My Last Post. . . a follow up.
Went to the Doc yesterday for consultation #3 of 6 needed for insurance approval. And the first thing she said to me was: "So what did you think of last week's Lap Band support group seminar?" I said, do you want me to be totally honest? So, I told her how obnoxious I thought the LP Rep was and how inappropriate her presentation was and she soooooo totally agreed with me. It was really funny because she totally ripped into the rep, was imitating her and thought she was dressed for a night out at the bar, and not a medical support group meeting. So at least I don't feel like such a #*&@$ for ripping on this woman so much in my last post. Anyway enough about her. I have to schedule my Stress Test for next week and get that done. I am kind of afraid of that test. How did you guys do with it?

I didnt have to have a stress test....so I can't help you on that one. I just wanted to say HI!
ReplyDeletethe stress test was hard for me...my doc made me do the one that was induced by the medicine in an iv, not the one on the tredmill, and mine was at like 3 in the afternoon so since I hadnt had anything to eat all day long an my heart rate got so high I almost puked. It was hard. are they making you do the one on the tredmill, if you have a choice I would so pick that one!!!
ReplyDeleteYes the treadmill. I am just scared cause I am out of shape. How did you get so lucky Amy? Oh, and hi back!
ReplyDeletemy mom is out of shape to and had to do the tredmill one, she said it wasnt that bad. the one that i had it just felt like my heart was going to jump out of my chest beacause of the medicine. it was not fun.
ReplyDeleteHi there, I found your blog through some of the other followers you have. My stress test was on a bike. It wasnt too bad. The riding part was only about 10 minutes long.
ReplyDeleteThat really stinks about the Lap Band Rep. Hopefully it will not be the same one at every support meeting!
