Hi all! So glad I found this site. I'm in the middle portion of the process. Will complete a 2-day stress test this coming Monday-Tuesday. After my last D/E class on 9-20-16 they will submit my insurance. I will be getting gastric sleeve due to so many other abdominal surgeries over the years. I'm just looking forward to having the process behind me and getting on with a new life/lifestyle. My only regret is that I am so late in the game, being 61 yrs old. Perhaps the last 10, 15, or 20 years of my life will be a healthy lifestyle and a prolonged life.
