Getting Closer

Jul 21, 2009

 So it's def. on for August 5th. I have to arrive at 7am and surgery is set for 9am, and I am supposed to stay there overnight and should get out around 10am.  It'll be at Mt. Sinai hospital on Madison.  Went there yesterday for some pre-op bloodwork, chest x-ray and ekg. Have one more appt next week for surgery, though I have 2 more appts this week not surgery related. I Have a sonogram for my PCOS and then a follow up with my PCP in regards to my iron levels and just a follow up from having the flu for the last 2+ weeks.  Feeling better from that but still have a sore throat, which is really weird because mom too still has a sore throat and is hoarse, and come on it's been over 2 weeks, we should be brand spankin' new by now lol
I'm excited. Anxious, I start 10 days of liquids starting Sunday, and since I was sick I had to re-schedule workshops so no income for pretty much this whole month, so I am so beyond not prepared because I can't do groceries, that's def. getting to me, but I'll figure something out.
  Saw the surgeon monday and I was really worried because when i saw my PCP the week before I weighed in at 289, and I freaked out because I had gotten down to 277, but when I was weighed in on Monday thankfully it read 279, so a weight gain of 2lbs, but the rest was from having my monthly since it was so extreme this last time.   Thank goodness I was so worried I had actually gained that weight and that surgeon wasn't gonna take me seriously, whew!

Alright, I should be sleeping, I need to try and get some cleaning done tmw, the dogs room is insanely messy and I don't want to have to deal with it when I'm trying to heal.

2 weeks to go!
