HP TEST.....POSITIVE. 4 REAL??

Jun 03, 2011

I'm with my bestfriend waiting 4 her 2 change clothes to go to the market.My phone rings and the insurance coordinator says" hi, I have the results from the h.pylori test and it came back positive. I'm a little shocked because your weight management reports have nothing stipulating issues with your stomach."
She placed an order for the antibiotic pack at my pharmacy. Prescription will be ready in 3 days because it has to be ordered. Will have to take 2 pills per day for 14 days(from June 7-20). Will call the  ins. coordinator back on June 17th and request the Labcorp order form to re-test for h. pylori. The first test was a blood draw,this time she wants the breath test done.The turn around time for this test is 7 days or less.
So, I'm thinking.....okay, it could be worse and this is just one test.Shocked indeed,but still encouraged to keep pushing forward. That's all I can do right?
Anyhoo, I asked ms. flood(the insurance coordinator),when approved, what is the possible surgery month now? She said if the insurance responds by July 22nd, I could possibly have a date between August 15th-25th. I was kinda hoping to have the surgery(pending approval), before the kids started school after the summer break.
Well my friends,God is still great,the press continues.
