I finally got my surgical consult appt. It went well. I waited for a loonnnng time since they were running late, and then Dr. Mueller talked really really fast! LOL! I don’t know if that was normal for him of just because he was running behind…?
Anyway, it went well! They gave me a list of tests I need to get done first. EKG, Chest X-ray, Blood tests and psych exam. Also, since I have a lot of pain associated with my hernia, he wants me to get an upper GI test. He told me that there isn’t usually a lot of pain with a hernia. That they usually just “slip in and out unnoticed.” So that worries me a bit. He said the upper GI will check to see if there are any obstructions causing my extreme pain.
So I have a lot of appointments to make on Monday. But I’m excited to get this party started!
