The PA I met with today was fabulous! And the patient advocate I was supposed to be working with all along is on her game! Today - Physical, EKG, CXR and Labs 8/10 - Nutritional Consult 8/16 - Stress Test 8/23 - EGD After the Stress Test, she can submit everything for insurance approval. I feel 150% better after my visit today. Thanks for your support!!!!

I too will be having an EGD sometime in this preop process. I have never had one, but watched many when I was in nursing school. Like others have said, it seems like a fairly simple procedure. You will get some good med through your IV and will wake up not remembering a thing! I look forward to following your journey!!! (((HUGS)))
