Yes!  My husband says I'm a nut about stuff like this, but I think I just need to proceed, so I do.  I even got the gallbladder ultrasound scheduled this morning.  For 3/10.  Whoopie!!

It was about a month and 1/2 ago I called for the apt for the sleep study.  Hopefully they can get you in sooner, but that was the sonest they were able to at that time.  MAybe they slowed down?

ok- back from my sleep study consult, and I have my 2 apts for the studies.  I asked for the soonest available and I am going to the clinic at Miriam on Friday for my first study, and if another is needed- I will go to the East Providence office on the 28th.  I also have my apt for the follow up, which had to be at least 2 weeks from the 2nd apt to make sure they had the results- so it is the 13th of March.  I will do my bloodwork on the way home from my follow-up apt, and then call to schedule my apt with Dr Roye.  With all these dates in hand- looks like my Easter goal is now to have an apt date with Dr Roye in hand (fingers crossed)

Thanks Cara- it is so nice to have someone to be excited with again.  Those that I started this process with have already moved on and are post surgery.  It seems like thier highs are sooo much more than mine (though they must remember what is was like) It just doesn't compare.  I am so jalous for them and at this point, just can't wait to move on.   The receptionist today at my apt was 2 yrs post op- she loked AMAZING!!!!!!! I would have never pictured this person as needing or ever needing WLS.  She was about a size 5 and perfect.  What an amazing sweetie!!! She so gave me the encouragement I needed today!!  I am starting to open up to more people about this journey because I have met so many people who I am shocked went though this also.  I am learning a lot about how even I judge people on thier appearance and weight.  I must admit I think I am prejudiced- as horrid as it sounds- though I love you all!
