You're kidding!



Recommended Posts

You have GOT to be kidding me! I have been going back and forth between my former surgeon's office staff and my new surgeon's office staff, trying to get my information transferred between offices. The old surgeon's office manage just told me that they didn't have the pulmonologist's report. The SAME pulmonologist's report that I spent a month (literally, an entire month) getting TO THEM IN THE FIRST PLACE. :faint:

This is getting absolutely ridiculous. Now I have to call the pulmonologist's office and have them send it to the new surgeon's office. I'm tempted to just have it faxed to me and then fax it to the new surgeon's office myself, just to make sure it gets there.:D

Laurend, I learned long ago to get copies of everything and deliver it where it needs to be MYSELF. That's the only way you can be sure it gets where it's going.

Stick to your guns, girlfriend. You'll get it done. :biggrin1:

I am really feeling in the mood to go play "smack-a-mole" with this lady's head. I am REALLY happy that I had to change surgeons. If they can't even keep their records in good shape, what else can they not do?

Well, I finally got everything to the new surgeon's office, I hope. I had to call both the pulmonologist's office and the psychologist's office to have them fax me the evaluations, and then I sent them to the new surgeon's office myself. When you want it done right, you gotta do it yourself!

It still burns me that the old surgeon's office lost the pulmonologist's report, though. I literally spent a month trying to get that damned thing sent to the right fax number, and they had it in their records in January.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
