Doctor apointments!
Sep 29, 2009
So two days ago saw my PCP to get medical clearance for surgery, and I'm good to go! YIPPEE! Yesterday I went to see my nutritionist so I can start my Fatty liver Diet today! LUCKY ME! On Oct. 7Th I have to start the clear liquid diet! Oh how I can't wait! Ugh.....Also had more blood work done....Talked to the nurse on what to except the day of surgery and I talked to my surgeon. She went over the true, false test I had to take to make sure I understood everything. I got a perfect score! I guess that would happen if you research something for the last two years!!!!lol!!!
I also found out that I'm the first case so I have to be at the Hospital at 5:45am....
Today at 8:30 am I have to go to the Hospital for a Hida Scan CCK. To make sure that my Gallbladder is functioning right! I hope it is, that way I dont have to be back to see anyone till Oct. 12Th....Whoo-hooo!

Waiting for Approval
Sep 09, 2009
So I called the Doctors office this morning to find out what was going on....I didn't hear from anyone so I was
confused! But anyway they told me they sent out everything to my insurance on September 3rd...They haven"t heard anything yet...But that's OK it was good news to me just to know that its in their hands... But I'll tell you what I hate waiting.....I hope they call soon!
Done with some of the pre-op tests!
Sep 03, 2009
I felt so groggy yesterday, from the sedation
......I was making mac and cheese for the kids and ended up putting roman noodles in the boiling water
.... Dumb ass! But anyway everything went good at the hospital.. I had some lab work done, an ultra sound, chest x- ray, EKG and the EGD done.... The doc put me on Prevacid to treat Gastroesophageal reflux disease....So I hope that gets cleared up soon.....So now i guess i just wait to see whats next, cuz i have no clue....I wish they would send in my paper work to the insurance...I didn't think they needed any of the results from yesterday to complete the paperwork, but maybe they did.....I hate waiting

PSYCHIATRIC EVALUATION DONE
Aug 27, 2009
Yea, I'm so glad I got this done...Dr. Clorfene was a very nice man....He did make me cry.....But that's OK...He had me talking about the relationship with my father....ugh...I'm just glad its over! He did say that he thought I would do great with having the surgery and that I really understood what was expected of me after surgery
....So, woo- hoo!!!!Send that paper work to my doc. office so they can submit everything to the ins...Now I'm just anticipating my next apt. on September 2nd for some of the pre-op testing....
Apointment time!

So I cant wait for my apt. tomarrow for my psych....Then they can turn everything in to my ins...
