I have probably asked this before, but I can't remember....

I am going to have my scope on the 22nd. After that, I will be ready for my second appointment. How long after the second appointment, if no other tests are needed and all requirements are met, do you usually have your surgery. I was hoping in mid June, is this unrealistic? I am having my surgery in Columbia. Dr. Fearing is my doctor.

Dear Elisa, I had to have several tests before surgery and saw Dr. Fearing probably 5-6 times before I ever got my date in concrete-several things play factors in it-like IF you have ALL testing done-even after the scope-they require pre-op testing, which consists of EKG, more lab, and chest x-rays at the hospital-and then it will be a week or two after that. Its going to depend on how booked up she is and so on....I am praying that you get your date quickly and that everything is great with the scope. Love, Janet
