It was good I'm waiting for my sleep study and nutrition (2) before surgery.. My upper GI,ultrasound and endoscopy are all next month.. From may 9th I come back in 4 weeks to go over all my test n then do medical clearance so I could have my surgery by July/Aug if everything is well with the sleep study n labs
