Passed!

Jul 30, 2012

Had my psych re-eval Saturday, and was told I passed with flying colors.  Woo-hoo!  Didn't think to ask, but hopefully, her report will go to my surgeon very, very soon, and then it'll be on to insurance (I think.) 

Now that I've cleared that hurdle, I need to really start getting down to the nitty-gritty of preparing for surgery (getting vitamins, stocking up on post-op supplies, etc.)  I pretty much know what the 2-wk. pre-op diet will consist of, so I am hoping to get myself started on that before it should officially start.  (Don't know if that makes sense, or not. . . )

I've been going to the gym with my husband, and swimming (or walking) in the rec pool for about an hour at a time.  Finding that I love actually moving, especially without pain, and I'm feeling better and better physically each time I go.  Seems like my muscles are re-developing after years of inactivity, and my joints aren't nearly as stiff or painful.  Happy Day for me!

I find myself feeling a few butterflies, now that it looks like this is really going to happen.  Hopefully, that little bit of nervousness won't get too much worse!  I'm going to try and stay as busy as possible the next few weeks, as I wait to get my psych eval to the surgeon, get insurance approval, get a surgery date.  Lots to look forward to!
