Ct Scan Normal! Yay! Pre Op Diet.
Well, I blogged last week about my chest x ray showing something abnormal. Had a CT scan on Friday and results came in this morning, NORMAL! I'm so happy. Thanks to everyone that sent prayers and encouragment. I really appreciate you guys so much!
I started my pre-op diet today. It hasn't been easy so far. I have fourteen days of 4 shakes a day which are chalky and I don't like them very much, SF jello, SF popsicles, broth, and diluted fruit juice for blood sugar levels. I have a slight headache from caffein and sugar withdrawals.
I'm really scared still and I can't believe that I actually am going through with this!! I've read some terrible horror stories about people with leaks and strictures. I read a story yesterday about a lady who has a leak that was in the hospital 5 times for a total of 65 days in the hospital. Oh my goodness!! I'm trying to have faith and rely on GOD like I should. I'm just so concerned because I'm self pay and if I have complications, how in the world would I pay for it?? I have insurance but since the surgery is excluded, I'm sure the complications are. I would be bankrupt if something happened.
I need to just think positive and have faith. I'm looking forward to my new life which began today!! YAY!
