Sorry, I can't answer your diabetic question...
But, as for the spacing of my appointments, it is driving me crazy! My PCP's nurse made all of my appointments for me and I guess those were as fast as they could get me in! I got a call right after that last post from the sleep center and they had a cancellation, so I will get that one done on Tuesday!!
I can handle the rest of the dates because with the holidays and all... But, I really wish I could get the psych one bumped up! The nurse told me that she put me on a cancellation list so they will call me if they have anything any sooner. I think I might call them myself and make sure I'm on a cancellation list and see if I can't get myself in sooner.
From what I got out of the informational meeting of my surgeon... They won't even let you have the first appointment with him until you have done all of these pre-tests. Then after I see him for the first time he'll probably order more tests (blood work, pre-op tests, etc...) and then I'll have to see the dietician and probably him one more time before surgery.
I'm telling you, it is going to be a l-o-n-g next few months!
I hate long waits. Havent had any so far. Most people dont see the surgeon till the last moment but i got to already for some reason. Good luck though. For some reason i can't get nervous. I think its because everytime i have surgery i love it! I want to work in surgery so for me this is a walk in the park. Bought a gallon of water just now. I hate it. grrr. trying to get used to water.
Welcome to the group!
