Not much happening!

First of all I feel bad because I have not been writing down my thoughts but then not a whole lot has happened........

I had the endoscopy a week and a half ago. That was fun! The Doctor was very good and fast. The procedure went well and it only took about 45 minutes. I stayed home the rest of the day from work and I am glad that I did. Had a sore throat for a couple of days after and then back to normal...... I called my surgeons office that same day due to the fact that Blue Cross had denied my procedure because of the facility not being a proper gastric bypass and lap band facility. Well, this was an easy fix now I have an appointment with Dr. Michael Feiz and then I will be able to go to Cedars for the procedure and this will all be good per Nicole. Okay......not a problem for me. I made the appointment with Dr. Feiz and found him to be a really nice guy. I liked him right away. He decided since I had taken phenfen so long ago that I should have an Echo of my heart done and because of the heartburn that I have been having he said that if I should have a hernia he would remove it at the same time as my procedure. No problem. I got back to my office around noon was in luck because I was able to get the echo done right then and I was able to get the report from my Endoscopy. Heart was in real good strong health and the endoscopy found that I have a hiatal hernia. Seems like Dr. Feiz just new that was going to be there, too funny.

Well, in the morning I will be having my yearly blood work done and a chest xray along with a visit with my cardiologist. I will then need a letter from him for clearance for my surgery and all will be faxed off to Blue Cross and then I will be approved and my date will be set. I am so ready for this......

I have been eating everything that I want to taste and I am so very tired of all the carbs. I am ready for the protein and veggies to be back in my life and all my fat to melt away! This will be very very good!
