It won't come fast enough!!!!!

Apr 14, 2011

Yesterday I completed my marathon of medical appointments. I met with my surgeon, my surgeon's assistant, the nutritionist, the psychologist and my patient advocate. Wow, that was one long day!!!! I'm glad I was able to get a lot of requirements out of the way at one time though. Everything went well and the doctor told me I need to lose 10lbs, complete a sleep study and have labs run. Since I am having to pay out of pocket due to an exclusion clause, I'm trying everything I can to get at least some of my requirements paid for. I went to my gynecologist and she is going to request the labs, so hopefully that will be covered.

Anyway, I was able to get in for my sleep study tomorrow and I can't wait to get that out of the way. The bad news is that if I need a CPAP then I will have to go for a second study and the earliest opening they have for my second appointment is May 19th! I am hoping and praying that I pass. If I do then I could have surgery in Mid May. I'm sooooo nervous. Now that I'm this close, I just don't want to wait any longer.
