I GOT A DATE!!!!!!!!!
OK so I found out my original surgeon was going to be on maternity leave when they called me to schedule my surgery so I asked them if I could have another surgeon do the surgery. They said yes that's no problem and that they could do it in as little as one or two weeks. Anyways, I went today to go meet with the other surgeon who happens to be the Director of the program. He has done over 2,500 surgeries and hasn't lost as patient to the surgery. I feel incredibly confident and safe with him doing my surgery. He isn't a man of many words but he says I am going to come through just fine. I don't have any real health issues except the sleep apnea. I going to do great!! I can't WAIT! OMG So after I met with him, I went to schedule the date. OCTOBER 30TH!!!! I am his first surgery of the day. I have to be there at 5 a.m. and my surgery is at 7 a.m. I go back to the doctor's office on Nov. 16th to see the dietician so she can tell me all that I can have on my pre-op liquid diet...yay. LOL! And then she is going to do a sonogram on my gallbladder to check for stones and doppler on my legs to check for clots. Then I go over to the hospital to pre-admit, get an EKG done, chest x-ray, and lab work (blood tests) done. So, wow, this is really happening. It's awesome!!
