Got my pre-op test date!
 Well, Nervous 
 Nellie that I am I hadn't heard from the doctors office concerning my pre-op, so I called them.  Turns out that my machine was off when they tried to call but that they sent me a letter in todays mail.  I was going for a face to face with the doc on the 11th and seems they've scheduled all my pro-ops for that day too.  I have to do the upper GI 
 (strawberry chalk, yum!) chest X-Ray, Pulm. Function (blow in da tube till yer 
 ), arterial blood gases (where's the flatulence monitor!?), UA, and an EKG... in other words I will be 
 through hoops on the 11th!  Woo-Hoo!
