It's been 5 days now without my beloved Pepsi. I am still getting headaches but they are not as intense. I am no longer having the huge cravings for my Pepsi, it's more of a mental desire now. I have noticed that I am not as hungry without my sweet drink. So it does give me hope. I know I have a tough road ahead of me with the sleeve surgery so if I can beat this battle I know I can make it through the rest of them.
Wednesday I go with Cristal, my 21 year old, to the seminar so that she too can begin this process. Since her insurance is different from mine she will have a 6 month medical diet. It works out well though. She will graduate college next May so we can plan for her surgery around that time.
I have also come up with several new questions to ask the Doctor. My biggest worry now is Gallstones. I have read on some posts that some doctors give anti-gallstone meds after surgery. I have also read that some people have to go back for surgery to remove their gall bladder. Right now I am thinking "If you're already in there just take that out too!". I will wait and see what Doctor Joyce has to say.
Next week is my pulmonary appointment and then September 2 is my second attempt at Psych clearance. Let's hope this new doctor shows up for my appointment.
