PATTS today

Feb 17, 2015

Hey everybody How goes it ??? I had my PATTS (PreAdmission Testing and Teaching) through HRRH today. Had a visit with the Nurse, Anesthesiologist, Lab (blood work and ECG) and X-ray (Chest xray). My appointment was for 8:00 am it was crazy busy in there. I didn't even get registered till 9:00 am. Started seeing people about 10:00 am and finished by 1:15. Would have been earlier but I got forgotten about in the xray dept. I patiently waited for an hour and then went back up and politely asked if I was sitting in the wrong waiting room or something because I'd been there for an hour and everyone else had come and gone but me. They apologized for the mix up and took me in immediately. All in all it wasn't bad just a lot of waiting but I wasn't in any hurry anyway. Today was my second day of OptiFast as well. I have decided I prefer chocolate, with a little hint of peppermint and my imagination kinda tastes like mint chip ice cream. I'm doing great so far no cheating here. The doctor I saw today reiterated how important OptiFast is to get the fat around the liver shrunk. He said he understands how hard this is but to stick with. I'm not finding it to bad so far although I'm only able to get 3 shakes per day, I hope it's enough just can't stomach 4 but I'll keep trying.
