Surgery change, surgeon change, surgery date set yay!!!!!!

Jun 18, 2009

Man. It has been a rough couple of weeks. After my decison at the beginning of June to change my surgery from a RNY to a DS, it has been non stop stress. Reading the boards like a mad woman, doing research like a mad woman, analyzing every single thing everyone said.....at the end of it all, there was no doubt in my mind that I made the right decision in choosing to have the DS. I was dreading the RNY the closer to my surgery it got, and I just felt this huge burden lift when I made up my mind to do the DS. After 3 consults, and 3 phone consultations I finally decided on Dr. Hares in Madison Heights MI. He is very well known, and only does DS, and revisions. I was so impressed by the caring, compassionate treatment I got. I really felt that they cared about ME, and who I was. I wasn't just another number for them to collect a copay and call it a day. Wow. I am so thrilled right now. My surgery is scheduled for July 20th. I have 4 Mondays to go!! Please, if you are the praying sort, prayers, I am very scared of leaving behind my husband and sweet little boys, and if you are not the praying type, send peaceful thoughts :)
