Tombstone Tess

Thanks everyone. I realize my protein intake is lacking a bit, mostly because everything has artificial sweeteners and I hate them. They cause me diarrhea and bloat. I am hopeful that once I hit the soft food stage, the real foods will help with the hunger. I only have one more week and I should graduate.

I had my surgery on Friday (8/20) and I woke up from surgery very hungry. I thought that the surgery would help end hunger for the first year. I'm hydrated, I just want the hunger to end. Any suggestions?

I have the initial visit but it is 3 weeks out. They said they would give me the list then. It seems like for most offices they require roughly the same things, and they specific mentioned I will need the cardio exam. I am way down south, my dr is Chiasson. I have heard nothing but good things about him so far.

I have just started the process. I was trying to get my surgery done at a mil base, but COVID quashed that. I am switching to the civilian side. I have my seminar scheduled for Dec, but I would like to get as much done before then as possible. Who needs to write for the cardiac check up? Is this something I should be talking with my PCM about, or does the gastro do that? My pcm isn't very reliable he referred me to someone who hasn't practiced here for 2 years. Any helpful hints would be very appreciated. Tess
