I have a date!

with Dr. Shikora, for January 19th.  I can't believe it's actually happening!  I have to go in on the 7th for pre-op work, anyone want to tell me about that?  I think they mentioned having a medical history and physical exam, then chest x-ray, EKG, something else I forgot and meeting with the anesthesiologist.

So excited and nervous!

AWESOME!!! Doesn't having an actual date make it some much more REAL!!!
Mines the week before - January 11th.  I did my pre-op last friday it's easy/painless
(I'll message ya my super simple pre-op experience)

CONGRATS!!!

Yay!!!  AWESOME!  Shikora is the man !!  :-)

Yupp, they do an EKG and rads, then you meet with the anesthesiologist .. very easy appointments! :)

 I posted a little about my pre-op appointments (yesterday); if you go to my profile page you can see it in my blog.  I'm at a different hospital, so it could be a little different, but hopefully it can help you know what to expect.
