GOING TO HAPPEN!!!

After my post from earlier today... I just heard from my from surgeon's office.. She was on hold with my insurance company for over an hour (what a gal) because she didnt' believe me when I said that I didn't need to have preauthorization with my insurance company... silly lady... PLUS!!! she finally received the information from the surgeon about the ultrasound...He is going to take my gallbladder for they did find some stones already. We were worried about a fatty liver... Well now I am even more concerned.. He is going to be taking a biopsy of my liver while he is in there.. of course she doesn't know why.. just that he will be. I guess I should be ecstatic that we are a full go... but now I am in more shock... happy shock I guess.. and really wondering about the biopsy... I'll definitely ask him about that on Friday... Thanks everyone for your support.. Jenny

Jenny, YEAH this is really good news hun and please do not worry about the biopsy at this point. I am sure what ever it is you will work throug this and it is good to have this checked just in case! Think about if you were never going to have this surgery you would have not even know about this fatty liver so it is best to have it checked out. YEAH you are on for Friday, this is just awesome news hun and CONGRATS!!! Party: Keep us posted!!! Debra P

WOOHOO!!! I'll be praying for you, Jen! Traci

a liver biopsy is the norm...you go girl! ANDI

Great news....Good luck.. LisaMarie

Jenny, terrific news! Nice to hear your surgeon is thorough. Take good care of yourself this week. Set yourself up the best you can for optimal health for surgery. Please keep in touch and let us know how things develop. Hugs and well wishes, Amy

Don't worry about the gall baldder or the biopsy these are regular things that happen. As far as the shock goes we all go thru it and it will pass. CONGRADULATIONS and good luck.

HEY JENNY! so glad all is working its way out for you thats too cool. I wouldnt stress on the fatty liver, ITS proly just a result of the obesity. I do know sometimes a fatty liver makes a LAP surgery difficult. ARE you having your bypass open or lap! ALL the best hug

Thanks again for all of the support!!! I am going to have the whole thing done LAP which is fine and dandy with me. After doing some research on liver biopsy I am definitely happy that they are doing it all at the same time. I had a strange thing happen to me last night. I am a musician and i love to perform. I rarely if ever get nervous. Well, last night I was playing my bassoon in a quartet and a quintet (that's 4 and 5 people respectively) and I had a hard time keeping myself from crying while we were playing.. and I made silly mistakes and was starting to get butterflies. THEN it happened.. I got up to do my handbell solo and I completely lost my place in the music... I know this piece backward/forwards and I just had to make some comedy out of the middle of it and pretend it was part of the piece. Looking back on the evening.. I guess my emotions from just finding out that I can really have the surgery were sorta pooling in my body and affecting everything.. talk to everyone later Jenny
