Good Luck.  I hope your in and out quickly.

I've had several surgeries including gallbladder removal.  I had to go alone because my dumb husband refused to take off work.  I survived.  I had RNY complication surgeries too.

You will be in my thoughts!!!

Get some trashy magazines to help pass the time.

I got to see Dr. Mann this morning and he went over my report with me and yep the good ole Gall bladder is coming out.... This coming MONDAY!! Now I got that panic before surgery feeling again LOL He also gave me a big ole jug of Loratab LOL its doing a good ole job of keeping the pain away. I didnt think he would schedule me so fast but Im glad he did. He scheduled me at a Surgical outpatient center but (and you guys will love this) they dont like Tricare LOL they said *what if she needs to go to the hospital?* well DUH roll me across the street to Pitt you dumbasses! Sooooo Im having my surgery at The Pitt Palace and I get my time in thirty minutes. I spent the day at the pre op center doing registration and getting blood drawn. Thank god that the same lady was there from last year that did my blood... she understands my Baby Veins and once again gently and easily used the baby butterfly needle in my hand and got two tubes out but it made me really weak and she got me some juice and peanut butter and crackers and I felt instantly better. Just thought I would keep everyone updated and wish me luck please!!

SOOO glad to hear you are going to get the gall bladder problem resolved.  The Dr must have known what a "pain" it has been for you, to have scheduled it so fast!  Keep us posted.
