totally bummed

:cry i am so totally bummed! i just found out that before i can get my band done i have to have cardiac clearance due to an abnormal ekg. the soonest i can get in to have that in is feb 17-21. that will push my band back to 3/3 instead of 2/3. i have had ekg's in the past and they usually come back abnormal because i have very tiny arteries. nevertheless, they wont do it until i get cardiac clearance. this is also going to push back my dh band surgery also until april rather than march. im just so bummed i could just cry. i was so excited and looking forward to next friday.

I feel your frustration... I was originally supposed to be banded in February or March of 2005 and it was postponed until the end of July. I shed a few tears myself, but just know that the big day WILL come. Hang in there!

Ah - I'm sorry! I know that sucks a bunch to have been all ready to go and then been postponed.... It's only a month though - hang in there! It will fly by!

The reason I got banded was because I have a heart problem BAVD (Bicuspid Aeortic Valve Disease) and I needed to get this darn weight off for my hearts sake............ So god forbid that you do have a problem with your heart I really don't believe it will affect your getting banded.

Good luck and I'll Keep my fingers crossed for you.

Does having a bicuspid aortic valve a comorbity for the weightloss surgery? Is it considered cardiovascular disease?
