Pre Op Tests

Aug 13, 2009

Yesterday I went in for all my the remaining two pre-op tests.  Plus had to have my thyroid re-ultrasound-ed.  When I started to get serious about this journey of WLS, the surgeon during the first office visit discovered two nodules on each side of my thyroid.   At the time the first course was to have an ultrasound.  Due to the size of each (1"+ on both sides) ordered a biopsy.   One side was benign and the other was inconclusive.   Then the waiting began for 6-months to go by and here we are; ultrasound to see if they have grown.   If they have grown then biopsy again.   So . . . . . while I was already there @ the hospital getting this done I thought I would simply get the rest of the pre-op tests done.    Friday is the UGI & abdominal ultrasound.  

I have been very cranky and on edge.   I have been trying to figure out if it is the WLS becoming more of a reality or if it is the other stresses in my life.   My spouse is concerned about the surgery & the prospect of the worst case scenario.   We are scheduled for one of the surgeon's WLS Seminars next week and have an appointment on Sept 2nd to go have one last face-to-face before submitting for authorization.  

Take Care my Friends!!
