And the process has started

Hello all, I have been following this forum since I was referred 3 years ago. I am not starting my own journey. I have filled out my paper our out.  I go for my blood work and dietitions appointments tomorrow. This is the beginning of an exciting journey. Hopefully I can get everything done quick and get on with the surgery. 

Exciting, eh?  The waiting is tortuous at times, but now seems to fly by with so much to do before my surgery. Where is your surgery happening?

I am having my surgery in Fredericton. I had my first dietitian appointment today with the second one next week. So excited!!!!

That IS exciting. You really didn't have a long time to wait!  Keep us posted on how you are doing!!!!!

I just got the call from Dr. Boisvert's office yesterday.  I'm pretty excited!  I've been waiting for 3 years as well.  

Maybe we will be sleeved around the same time :) That would be exciting!!!!

That would awesome.  I think it would be nice to have someone close by who's going through this same life-changing process  :)

All of the preappoitments are complete. Now I am just waiting foentye call to meet the surgeon and get my date:). Then there is one follow up appointment and then it is show time. Watching my phone constantly makes the days long. But I know that the call is coming. Hurry up and wait!  

Super excited!!!!! I go for my appoitment with the surgeon on Monday! It will be no time and it will be all over with!

So appointment went well! I have to have a barium? X-ray done to confirm I don't have any hernias in my stomach. Then once that is clear I get my surgery date:) I go for my x-ray on June 23 so I should get a call to be  rescheduleed back in with the Dr in no time. This has been a really great experience so far :).
