Venting! Today was the day from hell. While I am so excited ..I am down 128 pounds..only 31 more to go...
I am back to Dr Bock office...not for any complications to the RNY...this is for the breast reduction. I was so excited when I got the it approved...I guess being 181 pounds and wearing a 38G bra is a good enough reason for it..finally. When I had my last mamo (a requirement for the reducation) they found a lump...so I worried about that for 6 days...then found out it was not cancer..yeah! Well today the doctor who was to perform the reducation advised me that she would not do it until either 1) it was removed or 2) the general surgery dept @ Group Health ok'd the reduction with the lump still inplace. I had my 9 monht follow up scheduled for 5/7 and they are booked solid until then. so now I am in the waiting mode until then...I think this is worse thatn waiting for the approval for the RNY...I have wanted this so much longer...lets see 33 years...I have had they suckers since I was 9 and have wanted them gone or at least smaller since 12...
I just hope I can convince.

Congrats on your approval - hope you can get to all the "red tape" relatively unscathed! Did you have to document rashes or anything else in order to be approved? I expect I'll be facing this same issue in the future.
