It's been a long time since I posted - Update on progress!

Well, I started doing all the necessary testing to be cleared for the surgery.  So far, I've had my ultrasound of my gall bladder, which found that I have gall stones. The doctor's office said I may  have to have my gall bladder out before I can have my WLS, which isn't what I want, but what can I do.   I went to the Pulminologist and he's verbally cleared me for surgery but I still have to do 2 tests for him.  Some kind of breathing test and a ABG test, which they test the gases in your arterial blood.  This coming Tuesday, April 29th I have the breathing test, the ABG test and I go to the psych, so I took the day off from work to get all this stuff done.  I work from home and haven't taken a day off since around Christmas time, so I'm actually looking forward to it.  Then May 1st I have the cardiologist.  I think I'll be done after that.  I know that I have an EKG at the cardio but not sure if there's anything else that goes with that.  I hope not because I want my date!!!!  I'm shooting for the beginning of June and if I'm all done with my clearances, I should be able to do it in the beginning of June.  I want to wear those shorts before the end of the summer!
