I had my appointment with the cardiologist yesterday and was told that my EKG was as close to normal as possible except for one small "blip". However, because I am a diabetic and have high blood pressure, he wanted to go ahead and do a stress test just to make sure there are no other problems. He did an echo-cardiagram yesterday and the stress test is scheduled for next week. If the stress test is ok, then I can re-schedule my surgery.
Hopefully, I will be able to reschedule it for Feb. By the time I do have surgery, I should have a baseline health report for everything! I guess that's good for the future, but with weight loss, I expect everything to change!
Good news is that I have lost another 1 1/2 pounds. HOORAY!
