Upper GI Dr Appt and Call from Dr Today!
Ok let me say I am so excited about this surgery but have 3 fears
1. death
2. drains
3. Upper GI Scope
1 of my fears was eliminated today!!!! The Endoscopy Dr. said you have no issues that would make me think you could have a problem so I am clearing you. He sent the letter over right away on my way home the Surgeons office called. They said you are doing great on your testing and you just need a 2010 weight check the PCP said I didn't see them in 2010. HOW ON EARTH??? So I called BCBS they said yep you didn't see a dr in 2010 you saw one at the end of 09 and beginning of 11. GREAT So I have my WW record book and a photo from 2010 they said they will submit my paperwork with that to insurance. I also have my blog with records of my weight too if they want to see my journey.
So I said look I have my 3rd Dr visit on Monday I need 4 medically supervised weight loss visits so can I have the surgery at the end of April? She said yes that is a very good possibility. I said my mom will be here in May in the middle she said that is a for sure no problem the May date.
I am excited beyond words. Next Fri I get my CPAP testing done for the fun machine as the 1st study said I had sleep apnea mildly. I go to the Dr on Monday and again end of April and I am done with everything......I told my husband he seemed kinda blah about it I said that is ok when I am skinny and hot you will be loving this surgery HAHA....BTW I might be overweight but I am Fabulous and Hot already...This surgery is going to add healthy into the mix!
