  1. I talked to human resourses, cause she wants a conference call with HR and the director of nursing about the timing of surgery,. I read up about FMLA, if you meet critieria hours worked ect. they don't have the right to deny you. If the Dr. says it's neccessary, it is. You employer does not even have the right to even ask yow what the pricedure is.

  2. Today I am feeling frustrated with the presurgery process. I was very excited to get the last consult finished. The Dr. Said he's get his consult right over to the program nurse. I called today to see if I can get any info on when they might be thinking about when I might be able to get the surgery done. I get the "its the holiday, and our office probably wont get it for at least a week." I wasw hoping to get this done before Christmas. I also need to make arrangment for being off at work. With having to do the two week liquid diet I am looking at the week right before Christmas. I wish the would have said well let us look at the schedule, if we get the consult back next week and you start liquids after thhanksgiving we can do you in two weeks. I guess that 's alot to expect but I am soooo tired of being fat and tired. I have been working on the pre-op appointments since the beginning of Oct. UHHHGGGGG.
