Lisa, Hun try to keep yourself relaxed, I know that is easy said then done, trust me....~hugs you~ The more you worry over NOT having the surgery the worse it might be too.....I will keep you in my prayers that it come down and stays down for you... If you need anything please feel free to email me.....~hugs~ Debra P

thanks Debra i think its up high from the loss of my dad...i cant helpt that stress at all this week. Im seeing my primary doctor this week perhaps a temp med will get me in the green for surgery! SO HARD! I have worked so hard to get to this point and loosing my date now would devistate me. I lost all the pre op weight, when i thought it wouldnt all come off, saw all the specialists, freaked when i had to have the angiogram cause they thought i had blocks, turns out my boobs made the problem and got thru it all. So to loose this date wouldnt be easy on me. TIME will tell....and i hope to take a long weekend to relax this weekend!!!!! THANKS for the kind workds all! Lisa

Hi Lisa, Sorry about your loss, I know that is hard. I started to develop high blood pressure 2 weeks prior to my surgery. I couldn't believe it and I thought I was not going to get cleared for the surgery. My cardiologist (well not really mine but he did my stress test and echocardiogram so I call him mine....lol) prescribed me some medication, which I took for those 2 weeks and all went as planned. Keep your head up, think positive, and try to do calming things for you. Hugs, Presh
