Finally Spoke to my "intake worker".

Hi guys,

Ok so here is what happened. The telephone interview that was suppose to take 45 minutes to an hour actually only took twenty minutes and here are the tests and dates and times;

 

Psch Eval:Completed 6/20

Face to Face with surgeon: 7/19

Nutritionist: 7/30

Chest Xray:Not set

Abdomin Xray:Not Set

EKG:Not Set

Complete Set Of Blood Work:Not Set

Blood Gas Test:Not Set

Stool Sample:Not Set

 

So there are 6 test that have dates of not set because I have to wait to get the scripts in the mail before i can call and schedule the test. Now according to my intake interveiw all 6 of those test need to be complete prior to my face to face with the surgeon. I'm sure that you are thinking... geez isnt that kinda close, and the answer is yup.... but i want this surgery, worse than anything i've wanted in a LONG time. so i will find a way to make it happen. I gotta keep this entry short becuase i am at wrok, but I will say this, I feel like i'm right around the corner now and hope that in i can get a date like the first or second week of august.

 

I am a big thrill seeker so this is my goal....... surgery no later than August 15th, healing up and taking real good care of my self from august 16-october 24th. My birthday is October 23rd so maybe i can go to six flags on the weekend of October 25th and ride my first roller coaster in 10 years. that will be 10 weeks post op, i think i should be fine for a good thrill dont you?

 

Alright i really got to go for now, i will be back once i get the dates set for the other appointments;

 

Oh also if anyone is reading this, i noticed a cople people with the dates of there appointments down under there weight loss ticker, How do you do that?

 

Thanks guys!
