  I am waiting so patiently for this. Dr. Steely is doing my EDG on Monday. Then I have the sleep study. I think I will have to do the Sleep study 2 times since I know I have sleep apena. I am hoping he will do this surgery in the frist week of May. Then hubby will be back from BNCOC and can be here like he wants to be. I am getting nervous but I know this is normal. I have to get the pills filled that the dr gave me to stop smoking. I know I can go on post and do the classes but I HATE doing anything on post medical wise. I find that on post they treat you like a piece of meat. Even my PCP is off post. I want to be treated as a person when I go to the dr. not pushed through like a piece of meat. Anyways, the pills are $118.72. Tricare doesn't pay anything on them so now I am saving my money to get them. Stopping smoking is the hardest thing for me to do. After 22 years I knew it wouldn't be easy. Just didn't realize it would be THIS hard!!! I could not eat before I could stop smoking. 
  There is this virus going around and I have had it for the past 2 days. So has my oldest son. I will be glad to get over this. Well guess I havew rambled on enough. I will try to update more as things start moving along faster. Thanks for reading my ramblings.

Well I went today to the Nutrition class and the educaton class for this surgery. I am so ready to get the last 2 tests done and get on with this surgery. I am ready to be a loser. I have been telling my sons all about it. They don't want me to do this but they know I have to do this for me and not anyone else. They know how bad I want to be healthy. My husband is understanding about this. I think he is more interested in me being in a bikini that anything. It's ok, as long as he supports me through this process he can look forward to anything he wants. I have so many friends and all of my family behind me on this. I am going to be a loser and this is going to work. Until next time.....God bless.
