Talking San Diego Newbie

Hi everyone,

So far I've done the consultation with Dr. Neil, did the ultrasound for the gallbladder, bloodwork, ekg, obtain notes from previous doctors and am now waiting to have the Psych eval.

I still need to attend the PreOp seminar and the dietary needs seminar.

Any tips, suggestions comments are Very Welcomed!!

good luck!...I'm at the "waiting for a miracle" part too...it's hard not to feel like I'm going crazy...or like everyone else in the world is in slow motion. You'll be in my prayers!

Default Welcome!

Fasten your seatbelt and get ready for the ride of your life! Suggestions? Don't stock up on ANYTHING except your favorite bottled water. Tastes can change drastically after surgery! Psych Eval? Piece of cake, just answer honestly. Start better eating habits NOW. Anthing you can do to lose some weight now will just make things easier for the nice man holding the sharp scalpel- I'm all for that! Keep us posted!
