I got my approval letter yesterday! I am excited and nervous at the same time. I am still having a hard time overcoming the fear. I try to keep focused on the long term. Anyone have any tips on how to get threw this waiting game and all the testing. Is there anything I could do now to help with the surgery and cut down my risk? Any tips welcomed! Thanks everyone for the support, it means so much to me!

Heyyyyyyyyyy Congratulations!!!!!! ...its so good to see so many other people getting approved these days. I got the word of my approval a day after my birthday ...and just the other day I got my surgery date scheduled...August 17th!!!...I'm very excited but also very nervous and scared. I'm told thats VERY normal so we're ok lol I was told to start taking vitamins daily and to try and get out and walk every day to get my lungs and heart stronger...I'm sure any type of exercise will be of benefit to us at this point. Start drinking lots of water if you aren't already doing that...it helps cleanse you body and it will be good for you to be used to it for after the surgery....if you smoke? ...make sure you stop at least 6 weeks before surgery...I am in the process of battling that demon myself right now lol Good luck to you and let us know when you have a date! ~hugs~ Konni
