The paperwork for my surgery said I had to have the pre op testing done no more than 21 days before and no less than 12 days before the date of surgery. Based on that my doctor's office instructed me to go yesterday because it gave them plenty of time to run the tests and have the results in my chart for surgery day.
I'm assuming the bracelet has something to do with the blood typing test. Either way wearing it is annoying because I'm not used to wearing anything on my right arm by the 24th I'll probably be used to it lol. It drew some looks when I was in at Walmart this afternoon too.

hello ladies,
so glad I found you, I was sad for the past couple days when I couldn't find you, thought I sure don't want to go through all this without you all. Got a new laptop because my old one was lucky to start when I turned it on each day to catch up with all of you. Told my DH that I wasn't going to be able to recoup with out easy access to my dear Hystersisters. Went to the urologist today, twice, once for testing, and then back later for my pre-op. have my pre-op with gyn on thursday. yes it's becoming a reality. Yikes.
If someone has others from the old thread on their buddy list, they should PM them and let them know where we are. Are we missing anyone?
LIW IS AWESOME!!!

Hey Valorie,
Nice to see you again. I thought you got lost. Wow! your time is fast approaching isn't it.
I am very jealous that you got a laptop. I want one too. My biggest worry after surgery is not whether I will pee or pooh or vomit or bleed ... my biggest worry is how the heck am I going to get downstairs to the computer to visit my Hystersisters ... LOL
I am a definate type 'A' personality and have a great need to be in control so this is going to be a real challenge to rest for so long. I understand it is in my best interest and I will do it but it will be hard.
I can't think who might be missing. As I come across people I let them know. Does anyone come to mind for you?
Anyway I am going to love you and leave you and hit the hay.
Hugs,
Tracy

Good Morning Girls,
Boy did I sleep good last night, 1st time in a long time, guess I needed that. So whats on the agenda today for the ones that don't have to take it easy? I have to go and pick up some of my test reports that I had done yesterday , I want to have a copy for myself to bring JUST in case it didnt get faxed to the gyn, dont want ANYTHING holding up my surgery date. Then I'm going to Home Depot and picking out a shower door . Yesterday when I went to open ours to take my shower It just fell off and broke , didn't even look like there was even anything wrong with it before hand . So thats my day
Sandy

Hi Sisters,
I was just checking "posts" during my lunchtime at work and, lo and behold, I see that Shellbear's thread is back (renamed)!
It is great to catch up with all of you again.
I saw my family doctor today for general health history and physical and he signed the form off as "Fit for Surgery" - not fit for anything else at the moment but at least I can go ahead with the TAH.
My pre-op is next Thursday - so I will let you know how that goes.
Shelley - good to hear that you are progressing but listen to your body - no means no!
Freezy - glad to see that you are starting to feel better and everything is still OK for your surgery.
I have to go back to work now but will check posts tonight.
Hugs everyone
