Guest guest Posted June 5, 2000 Report Share Posted June 5, 2000 Hi , how are you? I e-mailed Dr. R this morning about the blood work and EKG. I ask him what if I mailed it in with my packet and it was thirty days or more before I had the surgery? He told me not to send in the blood work and EKG with the packet to wait til I got a surgery date. So you are right about the tests. Talk soon, April > >Reply-To: MiniGastricBypass (AT) e >To: MiniGastricBypass (AT) e >Subject: Re: April >Date: Mon, 5 Jun 2000 13:08:44 -0400 > >Hi April.

Guest guest Posted June 5, 2000 Report Share Posted June 5, 2000 Hi April. This is from Michigan in response to your post.. I have gotten several personal email about the required pre op testing. I seem to understand it needs to be done before hand in case there are some results that are bad. Such as having an infection etc, so you need to have them done before you go there. It would be a wasted trip if you waited and something was wrong and you couldn't have surgery! This has happened to some people on this site. They had to postpone due to bad results on EKG or bloodwork. You just have to try to gauge when to have it done. It usually only takes a week to get back results. I am going to wait untill I have been approved by insurance and Dr. R approves my packet, before I get my EKG and bloodwork done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 22, 2004 Report Share Posted February 22, 2004 We conceived with follistim (injections) and IUI The day after my grandmother passed away...how hard was it to " Handle My Business " in a cup then go strait to the funeral home...but it worked!!! Maybe she is with me in this Miricle! They say that God gives you one when he takes one away...straying away from the point here which is...at 5 weeks we saw the very strong heartbeat and heard it faintly...with a vaginal ultrasound...heart beat was 122...they told us that a very very good heartbeat was about 100...so we were happy...then at 8 weeks we heard it...even stronger...it was 166...then we took another one at 11w2d because she was bleeding...the heartbeat was 162...so the baby is great!!! but we heard and saw the beating heart very early...
