test

Well, yesterday I had several things done in preparation for the surgery. lab work was the first, along with the ultralsound. Next, was the upper gi series. YUCK :-)  Last was my consoltation with the Anesthesiologist. All in all everything went very well. Now just waiting for next week to get here so I can complete the last tests. The Psychological evalation, and the nutristionist consultation. After that, I have to call  Dr. Chapman's office to let them know everything has been completed.   Sherrie

Well congratulations you are well on your way to a healthier you. The upper GI was the worst test, but at least they do not make you do a leak test any more. My sister had to drink that nasty mess the morning after surgery, 6 years ago. Thank you GOD for better technology!!!!!!

Praying for  the best for your next appointments and for a speedy date!!!!!!!

I had to do that too!It was nasty and I'm so glad it's not necessary anymore. 

Oh my goodness! I can't imagine having to do that. Thank goodness we don't have to do that part anymore! Sherrie

Sherrie,

It sounds like you are on your way. Congratulations. Keep us posted as you continue your journey. 

Barbara, thanks so much for always being so encouraging. It's just what we need sometimes. Sherrie
