Final 6Th Visit Completed Today...but

[mufasas-mom 170]

i was on such a 'high' thinking that today's visit would be IT - that all the boxes are checked off and that it would all be sent to insurance probably tomorrow or Friday - then....the dreaded H-Pylori test (which I did not know about prior) - they took blood sample this morning according to the person I just spoke with at True Results -they'll get the results back tomorrow and IF it's positive they will call me, but if I don't hear from them tomorrow then I should be OK....

this is a FIRST....NOT wanting a phone call from the office.....

I also asked if this test was a prerequisite for United Health Care or if it's a surgeon's prerequisite - she said it's the surgeon's - my paperwork will be submitted to insurance today......

YAHOO....however that doesn't rule out that if it's positive i would have to do 14 days antibiotics and the 30 day wait for re-test.....that would so suck....but I guess that it is a nasty bug and you want it to be out of your system prior to surgery.....

it's getting closer....initially surgery should be end of August...if my test is negative

I always hate when they tell you they will only call you back if it's negative. I wish that they'd call you back either way. Maybe I'm just goofy, but I get all anxious about it.

Anyway, I'm happy to hear that you're done with this step! My fingers are crossed that it will come back negative. Let us know when you hear (or don't)!
