Had my 1st visit with my surgeon today!
First off, I would like to take a moment to thank all of you who sent
me e-mails on the first day I signed in. It was so gratifying to
know you cared. It made me feel very glad that I had chosen to join
this group!
I had my 1st visit with my surgeon today. All went well, with the
exception of the two-hour wait in the waiting room! (HA) After I met
with him, I felt even more reassured that this is the next step for
me. I am still very nervous about the actual surgery, but its a ways
off so I’ll have time to sike myself up about it before then!!!
I was also able to talk with a patient who was there for her 1 year
check up. She told me that other than her initial pain and
adjustments to eating, that she had no problems to report. She could
eat any foods she wanted, just in very small amounts! This made me
feel a lot better; I’ve been dreading the baby food stage of this
journey!!! Its nice to know I won’t have to go through that for very
long. I can only hope that my success story is as “successful” as
hers.
Thanks again for all your concern and support…please feel free to
contact me at any time.
