great news

I have some great news . Last week I went to the pulmonary doc Dr Saad . I did the breathing test I did great than i saw the doc he looked at my chest xrays and he cleared me for surgery . Than today i went to see the vasculair doc Dr George. He said that i dont need the cava filter . So all i have left to do is see the cardoligist next monday and the homitoligist (blood doc) than ill be ready for surgery on the 19th.

Whoo hoo! Its getting closer, won't be long now! Will there be others up there with u that morning so I'll know who to ask for when I get there?

I still will be there by myself so far . If comes it would be my cousin Debbie or ot might be my aunt anna or my friend suzie im hoping its my cousin debbie ok thank you again for being my angel . IM PRAYING EVERY NIGHT FOR A QUICK RECOVERY

I'm sure u will be fine and up wandering around before u know it! U r welcome!

Hi Toni! I had my last day of my stress test today at the cardiologist office, then Thursday I will be going to Dr. Saad for my pulminary checkup and next Monday I go to see Dr. George (Vascular surgeon) (I am hoping that I won't need the cava filter, either!) Since family members have had blood clots, Dr. Shina wanted to have me checked out. I just got a call from the cardiologist, Dr. Donovan, saying that my stress test turned out fine and I am cleared for surgery from him. I am getting so excited!! What are you going to eat the two days before you surgery? I will be working both days... I think my sister and maybe my parents will be at the hospital the day of my surgery. I am sending my husband on to work, because I think he would be way too nervous to be there. I told him that he can come see me after work after I get out of recovery. Angela, that is so nice that you are being Toni's angel for her surgery. I hope to meet you also someday. I am in E-town all the time, we will have to meet somewhere sometime!! Kathy

Congratulations with getting through all your tests. I am sure that the cardiologist will be nothing but a breeze for you and before you know it you'll be on the losers side! Keep us informed on your progress! Dee
