I arrived at Lexington hospital after getting lost down town, I was late, but Dr. Antonetti was finishing a surgery at the hospital and was on his way.  I was weighed and my before picture was taken.  I had to go back to my car to get my medication list.  In the mean time, I was still waiting on the dr.  One of the other surgeons gave me the option of coming back next week without charge, but I had driven an hour to get there and was not about to leave.  I waited on him, and he finally came in.  He was very apologetic for being late and tbanked me for waiting.  He was very nice he asked me about my health problems, he was especially intrested in my sleep apnea.  He asked if I had been given a CPAP machine, and I told him no, that my PCP had not prescribed me one even though I had  severe sleep apnea, I had stopped breathing  for up over 200 times during the night.    So he asked me to get those records for him and I did that as soon as I got back to work on Monday.  I also had my psych eval record sent to them also.  I had already had one for another surgery group I was going to.   He gave me a diet plan to follow, so that I can get used to eating by portion control and eating sugarless foods.    I've done OK on it, but only the scale will tell.
