A little aggravated



Recommended Posts

I was so excited to finally feel like I was officially beginning the process by going for my yearly check ups tomorrow with my pcp and ob/gyn. I know my pcp would have been on board and done some tests for some things I was a little worried about before wanting to go under the knife plus he would have been able to have time to write me a letter for a pre-determination for my insurance before I meet with the surgeon on the 24th for my first consult. Same thing for my ob/gyn, wanted a letter about my pcos, infertility and weight issues from him to be submitted with it too.

Well, I get a call this morning from my pcp's office and they have to cancel my appt. for tomorrow and then tell me that I won't be able to get in until the 29th, 5 days AFTER my consult with my surgeon. So, I go off a little because I was so ready to get everything going and had this appt scheduled for weeks already. Ended up hanging up on them and basically showing my butt and then when I hung up I felt guilty, as I should have, and called back and asked them to please apologize to the girl for me, I couldn't remember her name. Told them why I was so upset about not getting to see him before the 24th and this lady said she'd see what she could do. I call back this afternoon and the soonest they can see me is the 22nd. But, that's ok because it's still before my surgeon consult, don't know if it's enough time to get a letter though.

So, on top of that, my husband was supposed to come home from work today but they got fogged in and the helicopter that brings them from the ocean back to land can't fly in the fog. So, he's not coming home until tomorrow so even if the doc hadn't cancelled on me, I would have had to cancel on them. And, if the fog doesn't go away by tomorrow it'll be another day of waiting, but I'm praying that he's home with us by tomorrow afternoon!

So, because of him not coming home today and being able to keep our little boy who is out on spring break, I had to call and cancel my ob/gyn appt. too! But, ended up getting them both rescheduled for the 22nd so all is not lost. I just have to wait 2 more stinking weeks before any balls are rolling and it aggravates the poo out of me!! LOL

Sorry for the rambling vent. But, no one else understands why in the world I would be upset about having to put off a pcp and ob/gyn checkup, LOL And btw, even though I do wish my hubby had come home today instead of tomorrow I am thankful that the company he works for takes every precaution when it comes to the weather and their choppers flying. I would much rather him be safe and a day late than them to push it and something happen.

God is in control and this was meant to happen. I just have to get a better attitude about it, lol. Ok, I'm done and feeling better. Have a blessed night everyone who got this far in my post ;-)

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
