Wheezy Whispers-AKA September's Goals

[Wheezy 0]

I thought it was going to be smooth sailing. At least that's what Dr. M lead me to believe. Because of the problems, swelling and lots of pain post-op, Dr M told me that it was likely that I would probably have an easy time to find my "sweet spot". He said that 1 fill would likely do it. Well I'm a little over 2 months post-op and will schedule my 3rd fill! I am calling the clinic tomorrow to arrange it in Ottawa. Dr M wanted me to have my fills in Mississauga, but he doesn't have to do the long drive. It takes 12 hours to drive to Mississauga and back as opposed to only 2 hours to go to Ottawa. I could make it a shopping day. It could actually be enjoyable! Hope the clinic agrees that I can have it done in Ottawa. Wish me luck

Good luck, Wheezikins, and do talk to your GP about your concerns. :help: Stress can do strange things to us.

As for me, I definitely need a restriction. I am eating like a little piglet! :hungry: Maybe it is the stress of the winter months. I want to hibernate, eh.:notagree

I phoned the clinic today and was told that they would give my info to Dr. M. on Monday (they must have forgotten that Monday is a holiday). They would fax the info to the Dr in Ottawa, like how much fill to give. Next week I have to call the Dr in Ottawa and make the appointment. I don't know how busy the Dr in Ottawa is, so I'm guessing it may take a few weeks.

The only restriction I am feeling now is in the morning. The rest of the day restriction is pretty well non existent.

A guy a work with is a drummer in a band and he is playing at the Casino tonight so I'm going there with a group from work. I'll come back poorer but it should be fun anyway.

Have fun, maybe you'll win the big jackpot!!!!

Hang tight with the fill thing. Once you get the restriction (AND YOU WILL), the weight is gonna fly off!!!!!!! But I can imagine your frustration.

I have 1.5 ccs in a 4 cc band.

You know the weird thing is I have had restriction all day today. How strange is that, it's like my band has a mind of it's own. It's saying "No I don't want another fill, I don't want to be poked, so I will fool my owner just for a little while, until she cancel's her fill and then, I am going to act up again"

I went to the Casino last night. It's on the Reservation, on the US side. I lost some money, not too bad. I always set a limit and always spend a little bit more. The band was great, my co-worker is the drummer. They play music that makes you want to dance. The only problem is that I had to wash all the clothes I wore right away. The Reservation still allows smoking in a public place even though it's a State law and has been for a few years. I had a great time, thanks for asking

What No Big Jackpot!!!!!

Nope no big jackpot. I always set a limit, can get in trouble otherwise. I know how people get addicted to gambling, it's the adrenalin and endorphins that give you the feeling of euphoria. Cures a headache anytime. I should try it next time I get a Migraine, on second thought, the drive would do me in before I get there.

So I phoned the Dr in Ottawa today, the clinic had faxed my info, so my fill is schedule for Nov 21. I asked if Dr. M had indicated how much fill to give, the receptionist answered, fill to 2ccs. Yikes!! That sounds like a lot. Anyway, I'll give it a try, at least if it's too much, I won't have far to go. I'm sooooo happy I can have it done in Ottawa. Hope everything goes well.
