Got all my pre-op stuff done!

Hey everyone! I am so psyched. I got all my pre-op stuff done today...sonogram for the gallbladder, anesthesia consult, bloodwork and last pre-op appointment. One problem was found that has me a little disturbed though. My white blood cell count was up. That would indicate an infection of some kind, but I am not running a fever and, although I have allergies, I dont think there is a sinus infection. Fuzz made me go get a chest x-ray, just to be sure nothing is going on there. He said he would check that and my urine to see if any infections show up there. I dont know WHAT he is going to do if they both come back clear. I am going a little worrying about it, actually. Everyone, please say a prayer that everything comes back ok. Lisa L.

Boy Lisa you're rocking and rolling.....I know you will be fine, and I'll say a prayer too....good luck. You'll be on the loosing side in no time....Take Care Sandi

Hi Lisa, you are moving right along, I'll say a prayer that all is AOK and nothing will be a henderance for your surgery date. None of us want to be late for our surgery date. Take Care, have a great weekend. Hugs to you Perry W.

Hey Lisa~ Don't get too worked up over it....he'll probably just give you an extra dose of pre-surgery antibiotics or cover you longer post-op. It could be so many different things--something even as small as a paper-cut. Don't fret--it will soon be here and you'll be on your way! Tamara (RN) 3/21/06

I sure hope so, Tamara. I am anxious for Monday to get here so I can call his office and find out what is what. Lisa L.

Way to go !! I am so happy for you, I'm sure there is nothing to worry about. You'll be on the losing side before we know it !! I have my pre-ops April 12th- I am really on cloud 9. I'll be thinking of you. Melissa

That is so awesome that you are this close to surgery. I am sure everything will come back fine on Monday. Kelli
