Hi Stacy. I am Just north of Austin in Georgetown. Your surgery is very soon! I understand the anxiety. Where will you be having it? I have just begun the process. In the midst of waiting for insurance approval. I want to get on with this. if approved, My surgery will be at St David's in Austin. How long did it take you to get to the point where you are now? It seems to vary. How long before the onset of the process until getting your actual date of surgery.

We gotta' hang in there and become BIG LOSERS. Never thought I would aspire to be a big loser. ???? Blessings to you,..Suzi

Thank you so much. I am scheduled to get a chest x ray and an upper gi test. Kinda nervous about that gi test. Does it hurt? Do they put you to sleep?

I dont remember getting the upper gi test... I remember blood tests and xrays and a couple ekgs

Thank you so much. I am scheduled to get a chest x ray and an upper gi test. Kinda nervous about that gi test. Does it hurt? Do they put you to sleep?

You are put to sleep during the upper GI. No pain at all. Just a nice deep sleep! Everything takes a couple of hours and you will be home. You are able to resume normal activities that day.

Yes you will transportation.
