  11. I tried asking to numb it first. With my son they did. With my daughter she said she didn't want to stick me twice. I told her I didn't mind cause I wouldn't feel the second one, but she still wouldn't do it. I don't mind needles and giving blood, but iv's r totally different!
  12. One thing that might have taken so long is I did seminar, nut, then psych eval before approval. I didn't meet with my dr until oct 16. Now still have egd-tuesday and registering at hospital. Surgery on nov 4 really excited now but also scared. Now its more real that I have a date. I've NEVER had surgery on anything and I'm 36. The most I've had done is a root canal! Lol
