Tomorrow is the endoscopy
Apr 10, 2011
Well tomorrow morning (early, early) is the endoscopy to check for hernia. Not looking forward to it, but better to have it than not have it and regret it later. SOOOOoo Doing the soft food diet thing today. Was sticking with sugar free pudding, but then found a list online that said soft cereals YEA so going for some cream of wheat for dinner.Still haven't been able to connect up with the new sleep physician yet. Called his office a couple of times but haven't heard back just yet (is this a bad sign??) Calling again tomorrow after my procedure, hopefully I can get a hold of him. HMMM just thinking his office might be in the same bldg. Maybe I will just stop by and make the appt. :)
WELL wish me luck. Hopefully, all goes well and we can keep the ball rolling. Looks like we will be closing on the new house at the end of this month. Might take a couple months before we get into it (needs some repairs). Hoping to get this surgery on the books before we move in ...maybe with a little luck...I can even have it DONE before then. Then it can be new house, new life for all of us. Definitely better all the way around!!
***UPDATE***
Well it's official HERNIA. But I did get a hold of the sleep physician and apparently (according to the nurse) there could be a problem with my medication for the cataplexy and the gastric bypass. So the sleeve may be my only option. So hopefully that is all the info. medicare needs deem it necessary for the sleeve rather than the bypass.
