Update on the new Wisconsin journey

[Guest guest]

Afternoon all!

Just a quick update. If you'll recall, " Wisconsin Dr. and 2 associates

visit NC Dr R after learning of MGB surgery from patient name of .

Wisconsin Dr. comes back and is very interested in doing the procedure here

in Wisconsin (where it currently does not exist) and asks if she'd

like to be the first - says YES!!!

Dr.My date is set for 1/16/01!!!!! Just got the phone call from the

Surgeon's nurse. Met the Dr. for the first time yesterday, we talked for

about an hour. Talked about possible bile reflux - yes, it does exist and

yes it is a risk - but as we all know, it may/may not ever happen. How much

of a risk? Very hard to determine or predict, everyone is different.

Enough about that. It's something that's been covered a zillion times. He

will be doing the same pre-op/post-op drugs, etc.

I'm very excited, but very scared/nervous at the same time. I'm very

thankful that I can have this here at home in Wisconsin - instead of having

to travel to North Carolina (no offense).

Have a great Holiday everyone!!!

Would it be possible for you to tell me who is the Wisconsin Dr.? My son is

interested in this surgery, and we live in West Bend WI, he is a college

student in Madison WI. I am very happy for you. Thanks Cathy Anxious to

hear from you.
