Well, I thought it would be long, slow journey, but the 6 months of dietitian visits and all the other testing went smoothly. Next step is an ultrasound and some other testing. Anybody else have a pre-surgery ultrasound done? Hadn't heard of that part before.

I'm so excited!

I did- to test that my gallbladder wasn't an issue. If it was, he would take it at the same time.

That makes sense since I had my gallbladder out probably 15 yrs. ago. Thanks!
