Endoscopy

[Pink_Ninja 22]

So I have my endoscopy tomorrow... I am getting nervous and excited... It's my last test for approval and assuming it all goes well I will get my surgery date this week! I do have a question about the endoscopy... Last time I had surgery they made me remove my contacts... Will they make me do the same for the endoscopy? I hate not being able to see!

Yep. Out they come.

You don't need to see your dreams. They'll be sweet and peaceful.

You got this! Don't be a "worry wart",

Post tomorrow and let us know how it went.

Prayers going up for you (and your sweet dreams).

Thanks @@Valentina for your response! It's more an issue that I get motion sick without my contacts so if I know in advance I can just wear my glasses

@@Pink_Ninja unfortunately no. I'm in the beginning of the 6 month supervised weigh ins. I am having the endo early to get it out of the way. Hoping to be scheduled in late September

@@busybeebug best of luck with the rest of your 6 months!

@@Valentina having my glasses was a huge help today! I found out I have a hiatal hernia that they will repair during surgery. They also took some biopsies but the MD said that everything looked good
