Hey everyone! I will be banded by Dr. Balder very soon. I am self pay and everything has been done just waiting for blood work to come back. Anyone would like to chat let me know!

Hello every! Just wanted to say everyone is doing a great job. I am over the top of being sad. I went to my consult with my doctor July 2. I was told then that I had to have blood work done which was no problem. I went straight to the hospital to have it done. The nurse said as soon as she got the results back she would call me with a date for surgery. So I was so excited, how long could blood work take right? I emailed her the next Tuesday and she said that I had to have it paid in full (I'm self pay). So I said ok thats understandable I went and paid it in full even got to work late that night. That was on a Thursday they said they would call me Friday with a date for my surgery. I waited and never did get a call. So Monday I called and then found out I guess it didnt matter if I paid for it yet or not. Because till ALL of my blood work is back she wont give me a date. Did I mention I would 3 full time jobs. So knowing a date is very very important to me I have alot to get in line before I can have it. So I just suck it up and say ok as I have a tear in my eye. Well this morning I have a wake up call telling me,"I am very sorry but Quest lost your blood for your B6 test" I was like excuse me? Yes mam you will have to come back to the hospital and more blood taken. So yet again I suck it up and say ok. I get to the hospital and ask the lady who was taking my blood how long it would take to come back she said 2 weeks. I could feel the tears coming on so I said ok thanks & left. I called my nurse and told her just so she would know that she would be waiting for that one to come in. I was wishing she would go ahead once she got the other test results back and shedule my date sence this was only B6 result we were waiting for. BUT she said no I had to wait. So tears came to flying. I just feel so sad and angery I am not sure what it is I am feeling. I cant wait to have my surgery. I went to the dietitan tonight as well and I am telling you she is stupid as a brick I dont think she knows what she was doing. She put me under as well today lol. Also did I mention my little girls birthday is Aug 5th and I dont want to have surgery right before her bithday and be sick on her birthday. I know this has been alot to take in, I just feel so defeated at this moment. Just wanted to share my story with everyone. I know every thing happens for a reason but gezz I am tired of the run around. So anways thanks to everyone who take the time to read my message. Good luck to everyone you are all doing so great!!!! -Sthernbrat:confused::embaressed_smile:
