Some work to do. . .

Apr 13, 2010

On April 12th I met with my surgeon.  He was very happy to see that I did not get discouraged and give-up due to the insurance company denying me last year.  I told him that I was a bit frustrated, but knew that this was worth seeing through.  Since it had been 14 months since my last visit with him, there are some things I need to do before moving ahead with surgery and they are as follows:

1.  PCP needs to fill out surgery clearance form (dropped off at Dr. Lam's office on 4/12)
2.  Therapist to give Dr. Chin an update since Pysche Evaluation from last year (Had appt. with her 4/13, update in progress)
3.  Endoscopy required (Consultation appointment 4/14 with Dr. Wong)
4.  Nutrition and pre-operative surgery class with Nurse Specialist and dietician (Scheduled 4/21)

I have worked diligently to make these things happen.  I do not want to wait until the last minute.  I learned a lot from last years trials and tribulations.  Now I know the expectations.  And I am ready, more today than yesterday!!!!!
