 Today is Thursday August 8, 2008... and I feel GREAT... !  I haven´t loose any pounds so far but I think it´s because I´m bloated from the surgery....
This morning I was 235.8 #s

 It´s been a long time I don´t share anything, but sometimes you get the blues...
The hospital-insurance problems came to an end on May, and Tuesday July 8, 2008, the clinic coordinator called me on my cell to ask me if I was still interested on the surgery... ARE YOU INSANE?  OF COURSE! ( I even went to another dr. in the meanwhile)....
Yesterday, Friday July 18 I went to my surgeon and we schedule the surgery for Monday, August 4....I weighted 246 yesterday.  

On February 1st. my surgeon Dr. iglesias game a date, March 3rd., after being cleared by the Hematologist and the Internist. But the hospital have a problem with the health insurance and until the negotiations are finished there is not going to be any surgery. I´m afraid that once I get my period my hemoglobin will go down again... Today is Feb. 20 and I got my period 2 days ago... I´m afraid...!!! There are no news from the hospital

When my internist saw the sleep tests results send me to the Pneumologist (nov. 1) this was one setback, but he gave me the ok since I was using the cpap... my next appt. with the internist was on Dec. 6.... On dec. 6... MAYOR setback, my hemoglobin is on 10.6 (when on october was on 12.31)... Dr. Fernández sent me to the hematologist Dr. Talavera so he can raise my hemoglobin... there I am... Dr. Talavera send me to do a lot of blood tests... (it happens that my iron is very low)... my new appt. with him is this Friday, Dec. 28... I hope some improvement... but ... this is a very very rocky road....

I went to the Nut today... she told me I have to do 2 weeks all liquids diet before surgery at any time....I want to do that soon... Anyways I have my NUT ok, The Physiatrist ok and the Psyc ok... I´m waiting for the Sleeping Test results, and I´m going on Monday to do the bloodwork, so I can go to the Internist... I hope no more tests.....

Today is Sunday and I´m going over everything I have done and have to do... I had my Psysiatrist ok, I went to the Internist and she send me home with 5 referrals: one sleep study (done), a set of sonography/xrays (done), an EKG (tomorrow), a pulmonary test, and a set of blood work. Tomorrow I´ll have my appointment with the psycologist and on Saturday with the Nut... I want to have all these tests made so I can return to the internist for the ok... I´ve started to pig out again the stress is killing me slowly.
