Question Surgeon appointment

Well, I meet the surgeon on Thursday (May 31). I was just wondering what to expect? Any ideas? I was told the appointment was around 3 hours long. Kinda nervous... Not sure what to expect in the dr. office for 3 hrs.

Went to my PCP for a weight check on Monday. I lost 4 pounds! I could not believe it!!! I was not even trying. Makes me mad though because when I try I usually gain! Must be all the yard work I have been doing... Oh my I am sore!!!! I also found out I do not have sleep apnea! Very happy about that... Wasn't too excited to have to sleep with a machine... I was placed on blood presure medication. It has been up and down for months. The PCP finally decided to put me on meds because with the surgery, I need to have normal pressure.

If anyone has info on that first appointent I would appreciate it. I would like to have an idea of what to expect. I know dr. are different, but just curious!

Thanks!!! I will keep everyone posted.. Wish me luck! Renee
