.. game on?
By Andi,
I started the morning with a nice surprise. My A1C had gone from a 9 in November to 4.1 or something crazy when tested last week. I'm hoping that my physical tomorrow is on the happier side. My nurse called me back from the bariatric dept & asked if I was still up for this. I said yes, but had that sad feeling of bad news to come. When the dept called me back to discuss my surgery date.. somehow they were able to squeeze in my original date of April 1st! I didn't really think it would be possible. I had missed almost a week of the 2 week mandatory liquid diet & when I received the original bad news about my surgery date getting kicked to the curb, I had been on my way to do the various blood tests and all that. The nurse advised that if I started the liquid diet tomorrow, we could be game on!
So, I rushed out and picked up a few boxes of the New Direction shakes. I am still on the cautious side about getting my emotions too high up. Tuesday I'm going to get my blood work done & I'm just going to hope for the best, but still hang on to some doubts.. just to try to avoid a complete emotional crash if this falls apart again.
Till then.. lots of finger crossing and breath holding
