Surgery Scheduled

[FireEMT710 43]

I had my first and last appointment with my surgeon today. He is really cool, I feel like if we weren't doctor-patient we would move in the same circle. I scheduled surgery and paid my first payment ($1,050) and won't pay anything else until Feb of 2021, not sure what that amount will be. lol Just depends on how the insurance covers it all. But I'm soooo excited! It works out to where I will start the 2 week preop the day the kids and I return from our fall break so won't have to worry about dieting while I'm out of town. Unfortunately I will not be able to eat thanksgiving dinner, but in reality that's ok. My son is leaving for college Oct 26 so we are doing thanksgiving the week before he leaves.

Anyone else have surgery around Nov 23?

That is exciting news.

Perhaps you could move Thanksgiving to a week or three earlier? We've done that before.

I hope everything works out as you imagine.

Good luck,

Tek

Yeah, I'm doing Thanksgiving Oct 24 so that my son will be here for it. If my family is still doing their thanksgiving (not sure with covid) then I will go, but won't be eating anything. My dr said I would be ok to drive as long as I wasn't on narcotics. It's an hour and 15 min drive

I would put an asterisk on your positive RSVP.
