Well I did all of that pre op stuff on my Christmas break. Bloodwork, UGI, endoscopy, psych eval, and letter of medical necessity. I have to get more bloodwork done at Good Sam Keri said to get my blood type an other tests done. I don't know why they didn't do it all in one shot. The first time I god bloodwork they did 12 viles!! I'm also getting my medical clearance done on Wednesday . Did they tell you how long you'll be out of work?

The surgery wasn't too bad. It was longer recovery than I expected but its been WELL worth it. I didn't worry too much about pre-op. the band will give u the control u need. I'm in Thiells.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
