Hi everyone, thank you for all your wonderful words of comfort. It's a blessing to me. I wanted to let everyone know that I went the other afternoon and met Dr. Fabito at our group consultation. I was so impressed with him and Ida. She is very sweet, but so busy and overwhelmed. I met allot of people that's going through the surgery, but no one knew about this site, so I gave them the htl. I guess that's what it's called, anyway... I'm more than ready now. I'm not scared anymore and I'm anxious to get it over with and get to the losing side. I have read profiles of post opts and emailed so many of you. I have been to 3 seminars, so I probably could do this surgery myself lol. Not hardly, I just pray God gets me through it. Dr. Fabito was so gracious and knowledgable, so informative. I love the way he explained how HE does the surgery. He compared with other doctors and how they do it. He puts 8 rows of staples plus sutoring in to keep from any leakage, that's why he doesn't have to do a leakage test after the surgery. He talks in plain language too, that's what I was very impressed with. You can ask him absolutely anything. I go May 8th for my pre-opt tests. I've had allot of them already done by my primary physician and my heart specialist. I have atriul fib and a heart murmur so I had to have a heart cath done and everything came out fine. Dr. Trask, my heart specialist said that he's quite sure that the sleep apnea is causing my atrial fib because both times I've had an episode with it, I've woke up in the morning and my heart was just racing. I did gain another 6 lbs at the time of the consultation which brings my weight up to 352. I'm not real happy about that, but it seems I want to eat everything now, because I won't be able to after the surgery. My how someone's mind can work that. It's not real healthy to think that way, but I know the surgery is going to help me so much. Dr. Fabito tells you though that the surgery is just the first step. From then you have to change your whole life. I feel like the surgery is changing my whole life. After I quit smoking back in September, I smoked almost 3 packs a day. That's why I've gained the weight. My primary physician is just so happy that I quit. She's has been an angel to me and she's encouraged me so much to have this. I think she's more excited than I am, if that can be. Well, everyone, I'll post more later about my tests. I have only 16 more days as the old Terry Loskot. I'm looking forward to seeing the New one soon. Love you all!!!! Terry
