Pre-ops are complete and I am ready !
Apr 26, 2009
I spent a week in Dayton getting my pre-ops completed. Friday I had EGD, then Upper GI with small bowl follow thru and transient time. Then on Sat I had a great time with the area MVADS'ers going out to dinner and getting to know them better. They are a wonderful group ! Sunday I visited a an old friend. Then was back to NPO after midnight and did more pre-ops on Monday. They are extremely well oraganized, working like a well oiled machine at MVH ! I am extremely impressed ! Nothing like the first time around with complete disorganization ! The support they have for you is also awesome ! Samples, all types of people knowledgable on the DS are there to help you. A large binder filled with great info also. Monday, also had EKG, labs, PT talk, NUT talk, nurse talk and internal med doc was met if your PCP is not local. Got all my prescriptions to fill before the hospital stay for going home, or in my case to the hotel. Signed all the permission papers etc. Now I just show up for surgery on May 18th and I am good to go ! Dr Maguire can see definite problems with my first surgery and he has a plan which we have agreed on ! WOO HOO. Won't be long now !
