4 days to go and I don't think its going to happen. At my medical clearance, my doctor stated that I definately have an overactive thyroid and he can not clear me for surgery unless a specialist can. Now mind you, my clearance was 2 days ago, I thought there was no way an Endocrinologist was going to get me on time. Well, surprise, surprise... The office of one did call me yesterday and squeezed me in. The Dr was very nice and she is trying to work with me. I had to get more blood work done yesterday then she will decide today.
This all sucks! I had my time arranged off work. My TT is paid in full. And I was really looking forward to a flat belly.

Well, its official - its postphoned indefinately!...
Well, its official - its postphoned indefinately! I was trying to stay positivie all day yesterday. Was expecting the call this am, when I didn't hear from them by 10am I called them and they stated they will call me back. Then I didn't hear from them at 1:30pm, I called them and they stated they will call me back. I reminded them that I needed to call my PS to notify him in time to cancel. They stated they will call me back. All the wait was driving me crazy!
I finally got a call at 3:45pm and it was recommended to postphone till my thyroid levels are stable. I will be started on medication and will go back to see my endocrinologist in 5 weeks.
I'm so upset. I've been waiting almost half my life for this and now that I can afford it its further away from my my dream becoming a reality.
I guess I'm feeling sorry for myself...sorry.
I'll be on here when its scheduled...Again.
I love this site. There are some really amazing women on here. I never felt any question was dumb and I gained much knowledge. This site is on my favorites, and I will check in from time to time.
Thank You

I hope the specialist can give you good news, itsmetime!!
So frustrating, itsmetime!! Take this time off to care for your thyroid, exercise and sock more money away. At least you've gone through all the "what ifs" and "guilty" feelings this time so that you can proceed worry free when it is rescheduled after your medical clearance! Thinking of you!
Thank you Maumee, Its so hard to get past this right now. I know its for the best and being healthy is what matters but you understand when its something you've waited for so long...its crushing.
I know what you mean. It totally sucks. :(
Oh my gosh...I am so sorry. I remember being so nervous for my bloodwork b/c you just never know. I hope your meds kick in right away and settle your thyroid down so you can get your surgery. Nothing wrong with a pity party..I would be heading to happy hour with a few good girlfriends!
That sounds like a great idea! Thank you.
Oh Wow! I'm so sorry! How devistating! I go for BW next week for my Feb.2 TT & it's very nerve racking.
I pray you'll have it done soon.

I just came across your review. How is your Thyroid now? I am also in Buffalo, NY. I have a review on here as well. Had a tummy tuck on November 6, 2013.
Hi AmyS33 - Wow, lots have changed since. 1- My thyroid is under control and I'm medication free. 2- My family and I moved to North Carolina 8/2013, 3- Will all that was going on, I stopped watching my weight so I have gained a lot of weight (currently 180 lbs). My new year resolution was to get back on track, lose the weight and get my flat belly hopefully by next year. I want to look as good as you. Thanks for reaching out. :-)
Thanks chic! I'm so glad to hear your Thyroid is under control, that's awesome news! Hope you enjoy N.C. - I have a lot of friends there! I would highly recommend the Points Plus program that Weight Watchers does. I lost 110 lbs (over 2years) on that Program. It's fantastic. Good luck on your journey :-)
