I get my SCUBA mask wanna be tomorrow. Then I meet w/ the sleep dr like April 23rd. What do or can I do in the mean time? Do I just chill for a month or is there any other pre-op stuff I could be doing - like the exercise class, ordering food, etc? I want to call the office to see, but thought I'd ask to see if anyone here knew first.

So I decide to catch up on some of my friends and happen to pick Jodie. After reading her blogs, (stalking her :D) I realize I may have been sitting here with my thumb up my... umm..in my ear.... SO I called MMPC. They have my sleep study results, but are waiting on my labs....from 2/27!! I called and they never put who to send the results to. They are sending them over "right now". OMG! I may have sat here a month - until my sleep dr appt - doing nothing. I am hoping and praying I can get a date before my folow-up w/ the sleep dr. Thanks Jodie for keeping your blog up!!

Gwen, I don't have a blog, but hope to be your friend. I am glad that you have moved forward, prompted them to get the results and move forward with what they have that they can do.. Get those other appointments scheduled. There is no reason that they can't get the group appointment scheduled after your insurance approves since you have already met with the Doctor. I never had a CPAP, although I wish I did, I would put it on my husband as we speak:- he keeps ME awake all night- but would never admit he has a problem. Move forward.. Just make sure you are comfortable with the pace of the movement.. I would love to be added as a friend.. I am honest, yet supportive.. God Bless. All things for a reason.. Wigglypoo(Amy)
