I fell like im stuck in limbo
Its been about a week since my las appt. with behavioral and both them and nutrition have given me the go ahead to see the surgeon to discuss the surgery and get pretesting and insurance approval in order. Now i dont know if it is just me or if im in like panic mode but i cannot sit still. I am waiting for the surgeons office to cal me with an appt to see him and every time i hear the phone so much as make a peep i get excited. I mean i even answered the phone when the one on the tv was the one that was ringing!! Is it just me or has everyone felt this way to some extent?
Hi Niesha,
I think that one you(me/we) make the decision for the surgery--it encompasses your life and you can't wait an extra minute. I don't know if you've carried a child,but it's kind of like the same when you are pregnant.
Try to stay busy as you can. It's hard-but your time will come.
Best to you!

Niesha,
The wait is awful! Try to stay busy (I know...easier said than done!). My call came about 3 weeks after my last behavioral appt. When my call came I was so excited. When I went in for my consult I asked to be put on the standby list. I was even more suprised when I got the call a week later to schedule my surgery. Best wishes to you on this journey!
