freaking out a bit...

I'm having my EGD test done today. Starting to get nervous. I've only been "the patient" in the hospital twice. That was when I had my kids! I've never been knocked out for any procedure! I know this will be a piece of cake compared to the actual surgery but it still makes me nervous. Hope I get good news!

On that note...I've did the sleep study Friday, eval yesterday, EGD today...hopefully things will be submitted to insurance by the end of the week! Keeping my fingers crossed!!! :)

Piece of cake. They'll say are you comfortable? And then you'll say when are we gonna get started? It's over! No big follow up Sx. How did your sleep study go???

I hope things go that fast today!

I was so exhausted from the sleep study! Didn't sleep well at all! Clearly not an accurate test! As far as the results go I haven't heard anything from that yet.

You know, I wonder about that too. I slept horribly for my sleep study and they claimed they got enough of me sleeping for a diagnosis but I honestly don't see how. I went home and passed out I was so tired! Lol! Good luck!

EGD went well! Just like you said...went to sleep very fast and was waking up 30 minutes later! No pain at all! They found a hernia that had been causing all my issues! Thank God they found something!

OMG! Seriously, I did my sleep study last Friday ad I was totally exhausted the next day! I also said that there is no way it is accurate. Lol!

I also go for my EGD in the morning. Im glad to hear it was easy peasy!

After my sleep study I came home and slept ALL MORNING!!! LOL!!

I wish I had known about the EGD test years ago!! I would have done it and had all this behind me by now! I have also been taught that everything happens for a reason. Timing is everything and it must not have been my time yet.

Cheer Mama you will be fine! I had no after effects. I felt great afterwards. I feel like the world has been lifted off my shoulders for some reason. I finally know that my acid reflux wasn't all in my head and there really is something wrong with me...well physically anyway hehe!

I will be thinking about ya! Let me know how you do! Huge Hugs!!!

Thanks! I just hope that they don't find something that would delay things. :0) Now THAT is my biggest fear.

That's what I was worried about too! Now that we know it must be fixed and I need to loose the weight all things will fall into place. Keeping fingers crossed!!!
