A Little Update

Jan 09, 2013

Hello, everyone! Not sure if anyone is even reading this, but I figured I'd post a little update, since it's been awhile since I've posted anything. I have definitely gotten the ball rolling with this whole pre-op process. I have done all of the required medical testing (EKG, blood work, abdominal ultrasound, chest x-ray, pulmonary functioning test, etc.), and was alarmed to find that I have gallstones. They have been slightly bothersome lately, so it has been recommended to me that I get my gallbladder removed at the same time I have WLS. I also have to meet with a cardiologist, since I have a rapid heart rate, and no one knows why. Scary? Uh, yup! Also, I have started taking a multivitamin, calcium, and omega-3 vitamins, as recommended by my doctor. Right now, I have most things done that need to be. I have a behavior modification class on January 22nd, 2013, and a mental health evaluation on February 11th, 2013. I'm just so anxious to have this surgery!
