Well, I did make it a few steps forward . . . All my bloodwork came back fine . . . that hoop jumped through - But I failed the hemoccult!! I only failed one of three slides, so I have to re-test. Now, I did eat beef one time during the test window and that probably screwed up the test - I just didn't THINK!! Thinking about eating is so important - NOT THINKING and ORDERING ANYTHING that is a BAD habit that I need to work on before this surgery!!
I dropped off my result today, so I'm waiting to hear back. If I failed again, I have to have a GI workup - eewwwwwww!!! Cross your fingers!
I had my sleep consult - my overnight is Wed and hopefully, I'll be sleeping pretty soon!!
If the hemoccult is negative, I'm still on for March 20th!!
On I work note, I told my boss I was going to be out with "surgery" beginning March 20th . . . he said, just make sure my cases are current and handled - no questions asked.
Great Boss!
