Excited

Jun 22, 2007

Well apparently I do have a mild case of sleep apnea! I KNEW IT! I also have GERD and a high hernia! IT sucks! NO WONDER MY THROAT IS always on fire! Well I went to consultation today and it was really short! Judy...WHO IS GREAT came in and talked to me...then Dr. Tribble came in. HIs phone went off twice(duty  calls I guess) He said I was a great candidate for the surgery! They are submitting my insurance info today! YAY I'm so excited! It should only take a few days and then I get a surgery date! I AM SO SO SO EXCITED!  During the meeting I was kinda meloncholy(sp) I don't know its just kinda weird that I'm actually doing this> For the first time in my life I am trying to get me together and it feels so good. Also it's kinda weird! ..this is going to be a much needed change in my life! I can't wait!

Worries

Jun 15, 2007

This coming friday I meet with my surgeon. I have completed every pre-op requirement, and I only have to get the surgery next. I have to pay my next 250 to see him and I don't know how I'm going to do it! lol I need a miracle within the next couple of days! I am nervous, excited and questioning my decision. Some ppl are saying can't u do this by just exercising! NO i can't! Is this too drastic? What if something happens to me? What if I don't get to complete my senior year in college? So many questions but no answers! I just pray to GOD that I am making the right decision. I hope that this is good for me and will actually help me in the long run. I just want to get rid of all  of my health problems. I am tired of being sick and depressed. It seems like even my so called friends don't want to hang out with me anymore. I was so encouraged from the support group and maybe I need to go to another. I tend to overthink situations but this is one I may need to overthink cause this is going to affect me the rest of my life.I don't even have a surgery date and I am worrying like my surgery is 2morrow!lol


Antibiotic

I have the helicobacter pylori (bacteria that causes ulcers)living in my body! IT sucks cause I have to take antibiotics...multiple antibiotics for 2 weeks! My sis is also in the hospital so things right now suck! I just wish it were all over. I took my sleep study and they said I didn't have sleep apnea..but I still wake up GASPING for air! What is that? IT sucks....well enough complaining gotta run up to the hospital in 100 degree weather! DUty calls! Goodbye!

Glad its over

Well today I took my nutrition and exercise final exam. It wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. The nutrition part turned out to be harder than the exercise for me! Well I LOST 7 lbs! I don't know how that happened! ONLY GOD KNows! Prolly because I've been so tired lately I'm not really eating! I just can't wait to see what's next!

Friends

Well I have these friends that are sup. to love me no matter what, but continously put me down. Either they ignore me and the surgery or just stop calling> I know this is my problem and they might not want to hear about it all the time, but it's apart of me now. ...this is what I have chosen to do. Is that being selfish or should I not expect them to care? I will be 21 in September and I am tired of being sickly. I had a small stroke in 12 grade(4 years ago) and I was the only one suffering...not any of my friends felt that feeling. I know this is for me and no one else. ON a lighter note...I am almost done with all my pre op stuff. I have some more blood work to get done and I'll be done! YAY! then the waiting on my insurance company begins. I also have to pass my gastric bypass test..did anyone else's doctor make them pass a test? I was just wondering!
