Well my Dr pushed me to RNY last Halloween Thats why I have not posted on this site . But I still get e-mails that ya miss me Well I went in Halloween at a weight of 335 lbs on a 5'9" frame As of Sept 1st I weigh 206 lbs on that same frame I 've worked out at a gym every month since surgery and have no lose skin to speak off Went from a 56 pants to a lose 38 3 xl shirt to a medium

Well when I got there today , none of my breathing test from the certified WLS were on hand . Pulamnoligist asked if i had every had a breating test and I said yes 3 months ago at WLS then he fumbled around and wondered why they had not sent it They are all tied into the same hospital and looked like everyone had to get a piece of the pie So I redid my breathing test and passed with flying colors again, redid my blood oxygen test and was told it was beautiful for the 2nd time :mad: Then they did a chest x-ray A wasted day of redoing what had already been done But if it gets my surgery IT'S all GOOD

thanks I had to breath hard into something and then intake hard also and the WLS person said everthing was fine that was 2 months ago Then she had me get cardio cleareance No Proble aced it:scared: Kidney cath aced it :rant: A1C were 11 .9 got them to 6.7 in 3 months:scared: Cholestrol from 238 to 190 in 3 months :eek: Now she's throwing a pulmanorary clearence at me :faint: And for the life of me i can't figure out what they are looking for or if since the Pulmanory specialist is in her network maybe they get a kick back I'm a go getter and all this hurry up and wait is getting old:notagree Started this journey in April Maybe they will check the dirt under my nails next :heh:

Jumping through my final hoop I hope What is done for Pulmanary Clearence ?? I'm scheduled to see a Pulmanary specialst It can't be sleep test , I've been on Cpac for 3 years now So what did any of you have to do ?
