New & Confused

I just registered with this forum and am scheduled for Lap Band surgery January 12,2009. I am in Butte & will have Dr. Rohrer perform my surgery in GF.
I went to the nutrition class in October and received my "packet". I ordered the "unjury" protein, which should be delivered by the 18Th & I start my pre-surgery diet the 29th. I'm stocking up on jellos, puddings, etc.
I am a little concerned because I haven't been contacted about my "psych" exam. I've called twice and was told I'd be contacted but so far, nothing. 
I have an additional problem in that I am a triple amputee and due to my weight gain the past few years I have become increasingly less mobile. I am now unable to walk on my prostheses, which leaves me basically housebound and unable to get to physical therapy or appointments. As the surgical date approaches, I wonder what more I should do? I think I am getting a bit panicky as the date approaches and just need to hear from people who know what's going on. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I would call Lisa in Dr. Rohrer's office and verbalize your concerns. She is amazing and will help you if you tell her you are scared and this is why.
