I am so excited about my surgery. Wow. I wish I could post a ticker. Twenty days to go!!

@Jana64 why can't you post a ticker?

I don't know. I will try it again.

It worked!!

Now I feel like part of the gang!!

Well......I had all my appointments( Nut x2, Psych x2, blood work, sleep study) finished by the end of November. I then needed to finish telephone consults per my insurance company- that was finished December 23. I saw my surgeon on January 12th. Paper work submitted to insurance last week so- just waiting for their approval to come through. Pre-op meeting Jan.22nd. So the nurse said I could have surgery 2/3, 2/10, or 2/24 depending on when we hear from the insurance company. I will have to start my two week pre-surgery diet when I definitely have my date. I guess February is the magic month!

My surgeon's office called and told me I needed to reschedule because they had a "scheduling conflict"... so now my new date is Feb 16th. I'm a bit disappointed and a lot annoyed I have to ask other people to change their plans for me if they can... but on the bright side I won't be getting surgery in the middle of Mercury Retrograde now (a bit of astrology humor).

I am sorry that they had to change you. Wow, that would be upsetting. Hang in there!

@Jana64 Thanks!! I'm super annoyed... I'm trying to stay positive. But I have been making plans for 3 weeks since I got the first date! I'm thinking like ... really y'all? Get it together! LOL

I mean I already made a countdown ticker and everything... heh!! ;)

They are lucky that you were nice to them. I think I would have been crying or angry. But I think it would be worse the closer the date was. I mean, how long is your pre-op liquid phase? Can you imagine if you had started that already?

@@Jana64 I was saying that earlier! They are lucky I hadn't already started the liquid bc it's 2 weeks. lol I think it was an honest mistake, but if it happens again I'm gonna go into Babzilla mode I think bc it took it out of me today!

@@BeautifullyCreated1982 the first one is Jan 21-Feb 11th per the farmers almanac :)
