Had my final test today, gallbladder ultrasound. The tech said it looked fine.
No stones. So now I just have to wait for the report to be sent to my PCP who will fax it to Dr. Potts. Also still waiting for my psych letter to reach Dr. Potts office. I AM DONE!

Next dictation, ins. approval and...........SURGERY DATE! I could soon be a loser!

I have to ask since I've seen it before, but what's dictation?

Dictation is when the surgeon dictates your info for transcibing to be sent to insurance for approval. That might be a lame explanation, but it's pretty accurate.

Hey I was wondering how in the heck do you get your weight thingy in there? I know dumb question but I am new to this whole system. I would like to put mine in before and then I will now how to later. I am just starting the hoops. I hope that I don't get to inpaitent.

go to User CP on the blue toolbar (top left) click on it. Click on edit signature. Then you can crate your own signature just like a post. I hope that makes sense.

Hey Jen,
You and I are in the same boat - got my last appointment taken care of yesterday (GB Ultrasound, too) so now the waiting game. Luckily all my tests went fine tho they did mention something about a heart murmur. Phew - I somehow felt a weight lifted when I left the hospital - I was really lucky - I got my EKG, Echo, Mammogram, and Ultrasound all done this week. I got my Pych Eval done a few weeks ago along with my Pap. And now we wait - toes tappin' and everything.
