Had my initial surgical consult with Craig Floch. It was kind of shocking to be told "Well, you're actually very healthy, except for your BMI." The only problem I've got (that they've found yet, I am having my thyroid checked and getting a bunch of blood tests done first) is slightly elevated blood pressure.
I'm doing my round of pre-surgery doctor visits, getting the letter of Medical Necessity from my PCP, meeting with the Nutritionist today and I have my appointment with the psychologist on Wednesday. I have to get blood drawn tomorrow and schedule an ultrasound. But as soon as I can get that done I can get my surgery date.
Gotta just keep moving forward.
I had no other issues at first either. But then in January my BP shot up. They were extremely worried about it at first but in the long run it seemed to be mostly stress from work and my father's death (that's what we all think anyway).
