I've been waiting for this since the first week in December.  At least that was my first visit with Dr. Glas****'s office.  I have been wanting this revision for a couple of  years.  I was turned down 2 years ago by another Surgeon for whom I will not mention because of the Psych Doctor he used.  He was young, arrogant and full of himself.  I took 3 tests that took approximately 2 to 3 hours for which I passed pretty well but when this Doctor would ask a question and if I didn't answer the question the way he wanted he would get angry and then after 30 minutes of it I got angry and I got turned down by him.  This time I had to see the Psych Doctor for this Surgeon twice so he could gather my records from a couple of places so he could check out all the medication's I was taking and had taken.  I past with flying colors.  My biggest wait was for my insurance company to agree to this surgery as my Surgeon is a provider but the hospital is not.  My husbnd called the Union Rep and we finally got them to agree to this surgery not only for myself but for 2 others that had been waiting as long if not longer than myself.

I am so excited that I am about to start my new life and eventually be able to live a more productive life and feel much better about myself but I am slso told that this revision surgery is very serious and can take up to 8 hours and I'm not looking forward to that and I don't know anyone that would be.  I'm so happy that I finally got my date and it will be here before I know it.

Dawn,
So excited for you that you have your date.
All the best.

I think that the time will fly past until our surgery date.

 July 3rd is my surgery date at TEGH and I'm so happy and a little (lot) nervous at the same time! But I think that is expected lol! Only 24 Days to go!!!!
