My surgeon called me last night... when I was stoned!!! I don't know if she could tell if I was impaired or not, but I doubt it.

She IS waiting to hear back from my gastro, and after she talks to him, I can expect a call from her admin to schedule the surgery
I just hope that they do touch base tomorrow... but I think they will. My gastro already said on Friday that he thought she may be waiting to hear from him, and he knows I need the surgery, so I think he'll get in touch with her.

A couple of things:
- She had a question about the Sitz marker study, and my answer seemed to clear things up for her
- She consulted with an MS specialist at the hospital to ask about any concerns she may have about the surgery and recovery due to my MS, and her only concern was possible problems during recovery due to immobility, which won't be an issue for me
- She tried to get me to switch neuro's, but I told her I'm happy with the one I have, and I want to keep all my doctors local because I can't drive myself into Boston anymore, and
- I told her about the Vraylar. She doesn't seem too concerned about my kidney function prior to surgery, but thought it was interesting.

I will have to go into Boston to meet with the anesthesiologists at some point prior to surgery. Corey will have to take the day off to drive me.


Yesterday I won $1K on a scratch ticket!
I have to drive farther away than I would like to on the highway to the lottery office to claim it (because it's over $600), but I guess it's worth it
I told Corey it's going right into the savings account.
