Internist...
Well...I met the internist today...
And despite a 30 minute phone call he took in the middle of our appointment, He was a very nice gentleman!. And he gave me the green light!! I am very excited!
So now, next Tuesday, I meet the surgeon for more then 5 minutes!! and hopefully will get my date soon after that!! Yippie!!, I have to say I was completely nervous going in, as the internist is like the last step before the surgeon...But he explained to me the pros and the cons and talked to me about pregnancy...Don't plan on that any time soon.
