Test Results

Hey y'all! I'm here with happy news. I had my heart cath yesterday and my cardioligist told me my heart is in perfect condition! What a wonderful and loving God we have! I am truly blessed. The cath was a breeze, just like my friends told me it would be but my thigh is really hurting me. A little less today than yesterday and I'm sure even less tomorrow. One of the most incerdible things was when I went in to register for the test the lady working there sais she had wls... I was like....wow, how cool! Then she said it was 10 years ago and she is doing fantastic! She lost 110 pounds and has kept it off. She gave me some good advice too. Y'all know me, I'm looking for signs everywhere and this sure was one for me! I've passed a road block and am continuing on my journey... Thanks for the prayers, I love you guys! Barb

Congratulations, Barb. That's wonderful! And meeting another WLS patient along the way - with good tidbits of advice - is a bonus. I'm so glad for you that everything came out OK. Looking forward to hearing about your next steps, Cheryl

Great news, Barb!!! I look for signs too..as you well know! LOL I love you, Friend!!! Becky

Congratulations Barb!!!! Good luck with the rest of the WLS journey and I know you will finally be on the loosing side. I am doing fine with my 2nd week. it is not as hard as I thought it would be but I will be looking forward to be able to eat other things than what I have had lately. My 2 week check up is on Monday and I can't wait to see how much weight I have lost. Take care of yourself. Mary

Hey, Barb! I'm go thankful your heart cath was clear!! What wonderful news. I've heard SEVERAL people (including ME) who had the same thing happen. The stress test must be very sensitive or something--picking up on stuff that's not really there! My leg was sore for several days...but not enough to slow me down, really---just enough to make me know I'd had something done. Good luck on the rest of the journey--I hope it's clear sailing from this point forward!!! Michelle

Congrats Barb.... Glad everything came out fine. I had a feeling it would all be okay. Like we said before, better to find this out, and know that everything is ok. These durn bumps in the road can be nerve racking though. Susan Lap RNY 12-1-04 285-221-155 (-64)
