my husband and i are staying at my parents house for about 4 weeks. today was my preop appointment and it went well. went to the 15th floor on time and got an ekg. down to the 2nd floor to see the doc. i shared some concerns, showed him previous blood work and asked for an antidepressant now that i know a doctor cant say its ALL in my head and that it will help with pain. He confirmed that I have an umbilical hernia and I could take care of it later no problem. My ekg when i looked at it said I had some sort of arrhythmia but the doctor didn't say a thing so I think it's not going to effect my surgery. Went down to the 1st floor for a chest x-ray and 4 tubes of blood. Back up to the 15th floor to get an ultrasound of my heart a stress test (which I hated and couldn't complete) and another ultrasound of the heart.
What a fun filled day. Besides like 2 people every person at the hospital seemed really nice and on top of things. I like that I never have to pay for parking.
The sucky thing is now I cant take any anti-inflammatory meds.
I'm nervous but it's not too bad. I think I will be okay.
The question is now, where do I actually go for my surgery? lol. I know the hospital but it's not like I've done this before :-) I'll figure it out.
