BBL + LIPO + TT with Dr. Jairo Ulerio

Ahhh it’s 11 PM in Santo Domingo and I have my pulmonary test tomorrow morning at 8 AM. To say that I’m not nervous or scared would be a lie and I want nothing more than to pass so I don’t have to book another flight to get back here. I’ve been listening to Dr. Ulerio’s advice and eating my respiratory medications as well as decongestants and allergy pills. I called my doctor at home and I have asthmatic allergies which means I’m highly sensitive to changes in humidity, pollution levels, and whatever other allergies I have. I wish the pulmonary specialist would keep this in mind... maybe I’ll mention it tomorrow. I think the symptoms have been under control as of late since I’m not coughing or having a harder time breathing. I’ve also been practicing breathing though my stomach and diaphragm to maximize lung capacity since that’s what they suggested in an educational video about pulmonary respiratory tests. I showered and washed my body three times with the antibacterial soap Dr. Ulerio asked me to buy, cleaned myself up with alcohol, then applied antibacterial cream in my belly button and nose as instructed. I have to do this again tomorrow morning too! I really pray, wish, and hope everything goes well tomorrow so I can have this surgery. I’m going to sob if it doesn’t happen ????????????????????

I called Maria, Dr. Ulerio’s assistant who needs a raise cause she literally runs the entire office, and turns out my blood results are perfect. She says that I don’t have to do bloodwork, X-rays, or the ultrasound again for three months if I end up not passing the pulmonary test. She calmed me and told me that everything will be okay as long as I think positively! So I’m definitely trying to but I’m still super nervous that I won’t get to have surgery this time around which means an added $1000 to rebook a flight back with housing. I’ve been taking the medication the specialist prescribed and I’m praying that everything works out cause my dear I want this so badly for myself. Send me good vibes and wishes and prayers or whatever is in your arsenal! There are so many mosquitos here btw and I’ve gotten over 15 bites ahhh.

Ok so I smoked weed once and I ended up paying $180 for additional tests along with the expected blood work and X-rays. I met up with a respiratory specialist and ended up FAILING a breath test that measures lung capacity. I never had asthma in my life but the humidity in the DR definitely has been making an impact on my body. The doctor prescribed some respirator as well as medication to help alleviate the tension on my lungs. I had surgery schedule for 4/27/2018 but now I have to wait until 5/1/2018 for the test, assuming I pass the respiratory test. I’m [RS bleep] annoyed cause the mediation and respirator ended up costing $200 and I also chose to do laser lipo which increased my total cost of surgery to $6000. I wish I could have predicted these set backs in advance but that’s life. Right? Wish me the best of luck!
