I feel like for me that things are moving very fast. Since Aug 19 I have done lab work, dietician app, exercise consult, Cardiologist visit, Pulmonologist visit, Psychologist, and support group meeting. I will attend a seminar Monday night. On Tuesday I meet with Dr. Kirk and then the surgeon for initial consult. I hope to here something about a surgery date. At this point all I know is that Dr. Kirk said at my first visit that surgery would be before the end of the year.
