UPDATE

HELLO CALI FAMILY!!!

SO I JUST GOT DONE WITH SEEING DR. VIERRA.

I HAVE LOST 17 POUNDS SINCE LAST MONTH, AND HE COULDN'T BE HAPPIER.  AND WE ARE SUBMITTING EVERYTHING TO TRICARE!  WOOO HOOOOO!

THE NOT SO GREAT NEWS, MY LIVER TEST ARE HORRIBLE, TO THE POINT HE HAS TO BIOPSY MY LIVER BEFORE THE SURGERY (DAY OF) SOMETHING LIKE THAT, AS HE THINKS THAT I COULD HAVE SCLEROSIS OF THE LIVER DUE TO FATTY LIVER DISEASE. NOT SURE HOW ALL THAT IS GOING TO WORK OUT YET, BUT WE WILL SEE.

I AM ALSO INSULIN RESISTANT, WERE YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO BE UNDER 3     I AM AT 39.1  I AM NOT DIABETIC, HE SAID  SOMETHING LIKE THESE LEVELS WOULD NORMALLY INDUCE A HYPOGLYCEMIC COMA, BUT I APPEAR TO BE RESISTANT. I DON'T KNOW MUCH ABOUT THAT EITHER.

MY BAD CHOLESTEROL IS BAD
GOOD CHOLESTEROL IS BAD  (ALREADY KNEW THAT)

I AM VITAMIN D DEFICIENT

THERE WAS ALSO SOME TEST ABOUT THE HEART I DIDN'T REALLY UNDERSTAND BUT IT IS SUPPOSED TO BE 1 OR SO, AND MINE WAS 9.6 

HE TOLD ME THAT IT IS A GOOD THING THAT I AM THERE AND THAT WE ARE GOING TO DO THE SURGERY, CAUSE IF I WAIT TO MUCH LONGER, IT COULD BE FATAL

WOW WORDS REALLY TO MAKE YOU THINK.   HUH

HE TOLD ME NOT TO BE WORRIED ABOUT TRICARE'S APPROVAL, HE SAID THAT THERE IS NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT AND HE IS POSITIVE THEY WILL APPROVE IT. 

SO I AM GLAD I WENT. 

THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR THOUGHTS, PRAYERS, CONCERNS
YOU HAVE REALLY HELPED ME IN MY TIME OF NEED..  MY GRAM IS SEPTIC, BUT IS STILL HANGING ON, THEY STILL DON'T SEE HER SURVIVING, BUT SHE IS TRYING...  I WILL KEEP YOU POSTED

BIG HUGS TO YOU ALL... I REALLY DO LOVE AND APPRECIATE MY OH FAMILY

Jenn,

Thanks for the update.  You were definitely on my mind today. 

I got my bloodwork back yesterday and I was lucky...nothing was too bad.  My blood pressure was 150/100, but I had just had a coughing fit and an espresso.

We seen to be at the same place just about.  I am supposed to get the final word from my insurance in a couple days, then they will schedule me.  I was hoping for December but it looks like January.

I am glad you went.

Warm thoughts for your grandmother and for you.
