Guest guest Posted November 19, 2003 Report Share Posted November 19, 2003 Wow... 13 more days to go for surgery! I feel like I am walking in a daze.. trying to get things done and ready for when my mom comes to stay with Noah.. my 13 month old.. Today I had PCP pre op clearance... and an EKG... good to go. Tomorrow I have my uppper GI Next week is the Cardiac clearance , visit with the Anestesiologist... and the Surgeon. I am so excited and greatful that I can do this.. but my body is wigging out. I get so shaky and dizzy... I believe it to be anxiety attacks. I had a few of those when I left my abusive exhusband who happened to have had an affair with his dead brothers boyfriend. (nope.. not a Jerry Springer episode.. real life in NJ) I actually feel as if I am going to jump out of my skin!
