Go ahead...let it out. I remember the aggrivation with my dr's office prior to surgery too! I could have smacked the scheduler in the mouth more than once for making me jump througth hoops I thought were NUTS!

Hang in there... it'll happen. Just do as told and give it time. Althought I have to admit patience is NOT one of my strong points...so I totally understand!

I am so sorry to hear that things keep popping up that slow down the process. I remember in January thinking it would be forever away but its finally here. Tomorrow is my surgery. How long has it been for you since you made the first call for an appointment? Try not to get too discouraged. I was supposed to be in July but my insurance didn't like one of my monthly supervised diet notes so it held things up a little. I thought it was the end of the world at that time but I do believe everything happens for a reason and I think now, this time is better. All doctors are different. I did not even need a sleep test and my liquid diet was only 3 days prior to surgery. I do believe this will all work out to benefit you. Its okay to vent! Thats why we are here. Take care!

Thanks for your kind words i appreciate itits so hard because doing all these things is time consuming my surgeon asks for a lot of preop tests and consults but on the other hand i think the more he knows about your body the better so he knows what is he getting into beore surgery but his office is awful! And congratulations on your day! my best wishes for a quick recovery blessings :)

Think positive & think will work out.

I know but you have to be on top of your game. Off topic but my son is special need & since he is 3 he is able to get free diapers & a special need stroller but after getting the run around from the company not the doctors. I went down to the doctor office to make the nurse find a company that deals with kids diapers & get moving with his. Stroller. He bangs his head & I love him to much. I fight for all my kids especially him. So fight for what you need & want like me. I don't give up.
