I know patience is a virtue and it will all fall into place but I just want to get my date! I received pulmonary clearance last Friday but they wouldn't send it to my Dr until I had cardiac clearance. I had something pop up on a test which after a week of hubby and I freaking out turned out to be nothing. So cardiology has sent the ok to the lung Dr that surgery was good. But now I'm waiting for the lung Dr to review that and send the pulmonary clearance in. Was hoping for yesterday but of course my Dr was not in the office to review it :-)

This has been the most stressful 4 months of my life.

That is all. Happy almost friday!!!!!

i feel thevsame way. i still have some testing to do but i cant wait!

I totally understand where you are coming from.

I had a 6 month pre-op diet then all the testing then had to gather all this info from all the doctors and get that faxed off to the insurance.

I was constatly calling the doctor's office and insurance to be sure all was going okay.

Finally Monday I got approval for the surgery but still had not heard anything about a surgery date.

I'm a planner and I just could not stand it anymore! Someone gave me the advice that the squeky weel gets the oil so I called the scheduler myself and got my date. 12/5/12!

Now after all that they are sending me some paperw ork and I have to see there NUT and get blood work drawn hopefully that goes smoothly and then it it's surgery time.

Hang in there I know it's rough but now you have us to support you!

please excuss the misspellings I didn't realize how much I relied on spell check! lol!

i wish i could call and get my date myself. I am soooooooooo impatient that i have to calm my nerves day by day just so i dont freak out on someone. lol. I did everything. waititng waiting waititng. My journey has been One year and 1 month. I am going thru insurance so its a bit of a longer process but i am deeply glad its just about over. Thank you Jesus!
