Pre-Op Appt DONE
Preop appt is done. Went to see Dr Cortes yesterday to confirm I have gained enough weight for this surgery. YES I am good with weight gain. Feeling miserable. He took pics at all angles. I received my 8 prescriptions from Dr Cortes. He prescribes antibiotics, Talwin for pain, arnica forte for bruising, iron, singular for inflammation, Colace for constipation, Zofran for nausea. He always has a compound cream for pain. This has to be mixed and mailed to your home. I am filing these mediations under my insurance so I am not sure how much the meds cost without insurance. At this time I also received my follow up appt too.
After seeing the doctor I went to register at the hospital. Here is where the excitement begins. It’s free valet parking so we pull up to the front and this person in a van backs up into our car. It was HARD. Surprisingly there was no damage to the front of our car but that didn’t help my dam nerves. I go to registration and signed paper work and paid them the hospital fees of $2100 and $1540 for aesthesia. Dr Cortes did not mention there is a $40 pathology fee. I paid everything in cash just because I didn’t want to deal with my bank putting a hold on anything due to the large transactions. But there is a CHASE bank directly across the street from the hospital. Once I did this I had to go see nurse for medical history and get blood work done. She also gave me antibacterial soap to use the day before and the day of the surgery. All the rooms are private so my husband will be able to stay the night. This process took about an hour and a half. I did find out that my surgery time was moved to 7:30 on 7/31 which is great, BUT that means I have to be there at 5:00 a.m.
I have to get a few more supplies. I need some easy slip on shoes and some maxi dresses. Hopefully that wont be to hard!
Happy Healing to all the ladies!

Yes, you all will have to keep me posted since you all are ahead of me a few days. Where are you staying? I was looking while I was down there because I have a hotel reserved in Conroe but I may change. I am staying until my follow up appointment. Hopefully my drain will be removed before I leave.
