On my way.....

Feb 14, 2009

So, I am about 1/2 way through my pre-op testing now. I've had my gallblatter ultrasound, endoscopy and my first visit with the nutritionist. Everything seems to be going really well. The endoscopy showed everything was normal, but my gallblatter ultrasound showed it "filled" with gallstones. In fact, the tech was surprised I have never had an issue with pain since there were so many. She said she would be very surprised if the surgeon didn't take my gallblatter out during my WLS. This doesn't bother me at all. I am actually glad they found it now and will do both surgeries together to avoid another surgery (and probably a lot of pain!) down the road.

Next week I have my 2 visits with the psychiatrist, my 2nd nutritionist visit and then the following week visit #3 with the nutritionist and then I am done!! I am getting excited and I am hoping to have a date for surgery by the end of April!!
