Update

I haven't posted in a while so I thought I would fill everyone in on where things stand. I am currently jumping steadily through my pre-op hoops. Get weight below 500 lbs. - done, now 464 Become ambulatory - done/continuing to work on Informational meeting - done Appointment with new PCP - done Psych consult - done Bloodwork - done Cardiac consult - done Pulmonary consult - test scheduled for tomorrow Abdominal/gallbladder ultrasound - scheduled for tomorrow Nutritionist consult - waiting for a call back to schedule Sleep study - I am trying to skip this - apnea seems to be gone When I finish these last couple of these things, it is back to the surgeon to get scoped and hopefully set a date! I hoping that will be in the next few weeks. I hope that I will be able to have surgery by early summer. I want to return to school in August and I want plenty of time to recover first. I will update more as I have news.
