This Holiday season has really just started but, so far it's been rough. I pray it improves soon.
I have my initial consult with Dr B in Jan. I have most of the tests out of the way. I have not had a psych eval yet. I have had the eval tests on my heart and was cleared there. Last week I had a sleep study. I have had so many tests lately. I have an ok and referral from my pcp. My liver doc will provide a referral as well as a letter of medical necessity. I have hep C and have been told that I will not be able to attempt treatment again until I lose a substantial amount of weight. Treatment dosing amounts are based on your weight. To be in a dosing range that might work on my hep c, The dose would be toxic amounts for me. Thats when I decided to move forward with the WLS. I have been reading and studying this for several years. Now I will finally move forward with this and I will beat my hep c in the process.
