I'm so discouraged right now. First off I'm new to this app/forum so idk what I'm doing but today I went to my cardiologist for the required approval, they ran an EKG and the dr said it had some small issues & because my father had a heart attack at an early age he wouldn't approve my surgery!!! He said I need to have a stress test and an echo before he sent the approval to my surgeon. I'm so terrified something is wrong and unwind be able to have it. Anyone else have any cardiac hang ups that came arise during testing??

So next week I see a pulmonary dr for clearance, and heads up on what they do there?

Awesome! You got this

Awesome!

Good luck to you Hun! I'm heavier than you and expected to have surgery at the end of summer (5'6 355lbs) but I know the battles you're going through

Wow thank you ladies for responding. I'm new to this page and I wasn't sure anyone would even read it! But I am so encouraged to keep pushing forward now. I was so down last night that I canceled my pulmonary clearance test today for fear of another rejection & I laid around all day. I needed to see that their are others out there with these issues. I've rescheduled the tests and am pushing through this.
