I'm starting to get excited about this journey. I believe that it might actually happen. Had my 1st consult on the 19th, today had EKG, chest x-ray and blood tests. Leaving on vacation Thursday but I'm scheduled for pulmonary funtions & gallbladder ultrasound on 10/13 (day after we get home), Social worker on 10/14 , upper endescope on 10/16. Just need response from nutritionalist (she's gone til 9/29) Psych & medicine consult said they will call me in the morning to set appt. And then I can schedule final consult & go for approval!!!!!
