Second Appointment with Surgeon
Jun 23, 2008
Today was my second appointment with my surgeon, Dr. Stellato and with his nurse. I also had most of my pre-admission testing. I love these people. I started to ask a couple questions but hesitated at some point and he encouraged any and all of my questions. He never hurried or acted like any question was stupid. He seemed as excited as I was that the surgery date was set. (July 1st is the big date). He did tell me to lose a few pounds to keep my BMI down to shorten the adjustments he had to make for it to be successful. So nervous now but better for talking to them. One more appointment on Wednesday with the pulmonologist, the nurse co-ordinator, and the nutritionists. They said a couple hours for everything. Woo Hoo!
