Off to see Dr. Clough today...

Well I am onto the next step now, I meet with Dr. Clough this morning...This really did happen fast, considering I started in February...I guess not having to cancel any appointments really helps too...I was okayed by my breathing dr, and then they got the report over to Lynn and then wham not even a week later and I am seeing the surgeon...Yeahhhh....I can't wait to be joining you losers on the bench, but let me tell you I am scared...Having some anxiety going on lately and I think the surgery is starting to sink in and make me nervous but just like you all I WILL get through this...Now I know once I meet him its going to be a waiting game and who knows how long insurance will take...could be a day could be a month, trying to be patient after today is going to be hard...Patience isn't my cup of tea lol...I heard though with my insurance that where I have a few co-morbidities that they should approve me pretty quick...Anyway talk to you later...and will let you know how it goes...

Good luck Angela! I'll be thinking about you!  Time WILL fly...trust me!  Looking back....it seems like it went sooooo fast!   Take nice deep breaths and remember why you started looking into this surgery.....to be healthy!  You'll get there....1 step at a time and we'll be here for you if you have questions or nerves!  honks!  Ruth

Sit back and enjoy the ride. You will be on the losers side before you know it.

Good luck, today, you will do fine, you have already begun THE journey of a lifetime, can you feel the excitement??? It might not be fear it might be adrenalin-as in , YAHOO let's get this party started!!! Thinking of you today! kate
