| Hello everybody.....I am so sorry for not writing in so long but the experience with BTC sent me scrambling to try to get things back on track. The way the situation stands with BTC is that they are totally out of the picture. I am disappointed that I have wasted so much time with them. In a few days I will be going to visit Kim and to visit with Dr. Rantis (Kim's bariatric surgeon). I have already completed the paper work for the Weight for Life group and have to see my new cardiologist, polmonologist, and to atten a siminar. This does promise to be a very busy week. It is my hope that after this is done we can schedule a new date for the sugery. Other than that not much is happening. I am trying to keep it that way on purpose. In addition to my "Pain of the Day" my left foot has began to swell on a daily basis. At first my primany health care provider increased my one of my medications to see if that would have any affect.....it did not. Kim had an idea that worked much better. She got me a type of pillow called a wedge which allows me to keep my foot elevated while I sleep. Usually by morning my foot is back to normal size but it does swell back up almost every night. The great part is that it is never as bad as it was the previous night. I have to cut this one short but I promise to write again very soon after retuning fron Chicago. Until then.....take care. |
