Waiting......

So yesterday morning I went for a "touch base" appointment.  I thought all my test were done and submitted but it turns out I am waiting for one last clearance letter from the Sleep & Lung Dr.  It seems that the last test I took that measured the amount of oxygen in my blood while I slept was a little low.  His office said they should get a clearance letter over today and they would call me.  Then the package gets sent off to the insurance company and if all goes well I'll know when I'll have my surgery by the end of the week.  Dr. Todd's nurse says his schedule is pretty wide open this month so I'm really hoping for a surgery date on May 26th.  I have started my low carb, high protein diet today to help shrink my liver which helps the Dr. when performing the surgery.  The smaller the liver the easier it is to get to the stomach and intestine.

So that's it so far.  Stay tune for more good news later this week!!
