First Pre-op visit

Oct 27, 2009

Okay so I went in on Monday for my first pre-op visit and got a list as long as my a$$ of stuff to do...lol They want to me lose 10-15lbs, go to 1 support group next Tues, then my next appointment is 11/17...They said that I should be having surgery between mid and late December, which is actually only 6-8 weeks away, so I'm sure the time will fly.  The pre-op testing is what they want me to do in the meantime, and I am only off on Tuesdays during the week so as soon as Kaiser puts in all the referrals, I will be making SEVERAL appointments on all remaining Tuesdays in November. I am kinda unnerved right now only because I was reading a forum today and it's like a war of people who had other surgeries saying how much better their surgery is and posting it everywhere when not warranted at all. Don't get me wrong, I respect everyone's opinion and choice of WLS, but I really think that causes fights between members and causes people to second guess AFTER they have undergone their procedure. Am I the only one that sees how that could lead down a screwed up road? But thats just me thinking about stuff that really has no bearing on my live or my WLS because I have made my decision, but it just can be a little upsetting to see people do everything but call you stupid for making the choice that you did.... That is all...lol
