Okay so this week I saw 4 doctors for pre-op. I am done with the mental health lady:) The GI wants an endoscopy, the pulmonary doc wants a sleep study, the cardiologist wants a stress test and an echo cardiogram. I have scheduled them all. They all said that I am young with no issues so this should be a breeze that these are the standard things they require for clearance. It sure is a lot of time off work. I am trying to take off as little as possible.
Try to see if you can "bundle" some of these (like the stress test and echo cardiogram). Sleep study is an overnight thing, and I didn't miss work. Just know everything you do is getting you closer to your goal.
Good Luck on your Journey !!
