Pre Op Done 21 Days To Go

[ljperez 87]

Got my pre op yesterday met with Dr. Hess and it looks like I'm ready to go. I have my final preop NUT next week and that's it. If you remember I was reconcidering the surgery because of the family. Well I have stuck to not speaking about it and it seems to be helping. Out of site out of mind it guess. I spoke to my Dr. about the issues I am having at home with the lack of support and he was a little upset that they are so against it. He offered to speak with them and explain what's going on and how I am not being selfish. He was great. I will have that talk with them and ask if they would like to do that (I don't want to waist his time if they are not ALL in).

Anyway I wasn't nervous at all yesterday they took a lot of blood and asked so many question about my backround and family history (AGAIN) They weighed me about 4 different times (glad I lost that weight he wanted me too). All in all it wasn't painfull just long. I was at Boston Medical for about 3 hours. I think this is why I wasn't nervous. Dr. Hess was very calming and made me feel that this the right decision and that I am not going to Die. I would rather be there for 3 hours and know they are doing everything they can for me then rush me in and out.

There was one thing I have an ulcer that I have to take antibiotics for 10 days. He said they are going to cut it out but because of bacteria I have to take the antibiotics. Anyone have that before?

Can't wait to get to on the looser's bench.............

I'll have to do the famous before shots.
