Oh Lawd.. Another Set Back...... :(

So at first I felt like I am approved but now my Doctor keeps sending me for test. I was a lot frustrated, until....... upon getting results from one test showed my heart is not functioning correctly. Cardiologist absolutely said no surgery til this issue is resolved. So people please be patient and follow through with all your appointments no matter how frustrating it could get. As long as your approved the surgery would get done..... biggrin.gif ....

ayy! i can imagine. im sure its nothing too major because it can be fixed as your cardiologist said. anything that can be fixed isnt too bad! god is with you. hold on to your faith & pray! god bless you <3

Yes I agree. I am patiently waiting. Hoping that its not as serious as it sounds. My nerves are shot

chigga77 - i agree its better that he found the situation before the surgery, just to be safe.

I was cleared by my cardiologist, DOS 12/6/11 - but the nurse called me 3 days prior to WLS to POSTPONE!! I was so upset, but she said the dr. wanted to see me.

Dr. was actually in room when she called me, - and he got on the line to explain about the "possible" prob about my cardio and he just wanted to change hospitals to one that was more qualified if problem occurred. Just wanted to make sure all would go fine.

What i'm trying to say ( being longwinded sorry) it's better to make sure all is ok and be prepared for all, make sure the problem is resolved.

All is good now, DOS changed to 12/15/11 and i feel better that the dr. was concerned just like your dr. Its good to have a caring dr. to make sure you're ok.

Everything will be great, sorry about your wait (weight!!) it'll all work out for the better :o)
