well, i have one more thing on my homework list to complete. i have seen the nutritionist, physiologist, initial surgeon visit, support group , cardiac clearance, and had an endoscopy done. I currently has sleep apnea, so i didnt need a sleep study. in addition to sleep apnea, i have been diagnosed with high blood pressure(14 yrs), diabetes(3yrs), grd(7yrs), hiatal hernia(7yrs), overactive bladder(2yrs), and suffer from chronic pancreatitis(2yrs), and i am only 32. so as you can see, i am a perfect candidate for bariatric surgery. it would not have taken me this long had it not been for a pre-existing condition clause with my insurance. but it gave me some time to reconsider, and i havent changed my mind so im straight. I have my pyschological exam in a week,then l should meet with the surgeon for the date. i am hoping it early June, if not it has to be mid july, but june is my preference. I am totally looking forward to the surgery. i look at the surgery like joining the military. you are forced to do things you would not have normally done, but its for your own good and you will love it. .stay tuned i look forward to using this as my journal.
