Making progress..

My Dh thinks I may wind up t*cking some people off.. (Ie.. my surgeons secratary) but oh well!! I had an appointment with my PCP today, and I called yesterday to have the secretary send over the orders for all my tests etc... She said she would. I told her my appt was yesterday, hoping that would spur her to action... NO FAX... so, since I had my list of what all needs to be done, I showed it to my Dr. and she wrote me up refferal slips for everything! Everything is scheduled on my end to be done by the end of next week! Tomorrow I have two x-rays, and my pulmonary function tests and EKG.. then Friday I have the gall bladder U/S. and the following week I'm scheduled for the upper GI. We needed to verify what bloodwork the surgeon wants specifically, but that's a quick turnaround for me - It's fasting, overnight - and just walk in to the hospital for the draw. No biggie. Soooo... Everything I can do except loosing some weight will be done. Now, to work on the weight. Fortunately it's not a do or die situation.. I'm not sure if that's worse though. I know I don't have to push that hard, cause she's not going to cancel the surgery, but I want to be healthy for it too! I went to GNC yesterday and picked up some Isopure drinks and a few different protein shake mixes to try in advance.. I'll be using those to work on this weight, as well as to get a feel for what I like before I HAVE to have a good stock in house!! I need to follow up with the office - probably daily till I actually get ahold of her - I want to know what they're doing about submitting me to my insurance, AND when we can schedule!! Am I being too pushy?? Honestly now... I won't get offended, but if I need to back off you guys are the perfect bunch to tell me so! You would know and I wouldn't take offence. Thanks, Katie
