Hey there all you happy people, so after a week of phone tag my doctors office finally got all my lab results to my surgeons office. I called my surgeons office to schedule for the pre-op appointment for get the ball rolling to get a surgery date and they told me that the surgeon needed to review the labs before we can go forward with anything. I asked the receptionist if everything looked ok and she said that she couldn't discuss it and that if the surgeon wants to proceed that it would be up to them. So here I sit with phone in hand waiting.

To my knowledge my labs should be good my nerves are just racked.

@,

Yes, I'm on pins and needles with you. Keep us posted.☺

I would assume that if there were abnormal results of concern that your PCP would have notified you. If they ordered labs it would be their responsibility to follow up.

The surgeon had my pcp do the labs then send the results to the surgeons office, my next pcp appointment in towards the end of October, my health insurance changes on the new year so I must have surgery before my insurance changes because the new insurance will not cover it. The new insurance will however cover the appointments after wards. My current insurance has already verbally told me that they will approve it, we are waiting on the surgeon to decide if he wants to do it.

My next appointment is November 14 and then they will send it to insurance then schedule surgery and it all has to happen by December 30 or not at all
