Hi everyone. My name is Tracy and I am hoping to have surgery
sometime in December. I was on the waiting list for surgery in
Greenville, NC until two weeks ago. Now I have had an EKG, chest x-
rays, and most of the pre-op bloodwork done. I have made an
appointment with a therapist, and a rehab center, and all thats left
is an appointment with a nutritionist. After all these appointments,
they will fax their recommendations to my doctor, who will then fax
it to the surgeon for review. If the surgeon thinks I am a good
candidate for surgery, all that is left is to schedule a surgery
date. The process shouldn’t take any longer than a month, my PCP
told me. When I signed up for the waiting list in Greenville, I was
told it would be over a year and now if all goes well, I will be
having it done in a month! Talk about life moving fast! lol
