Ok - I have done a lot of reading the past few weeks and all my pre-op stuff seems way to easy. So we made the decision in the beginning of June and set the date for 7/14 with pre-op 7/11. OK - Set the blood draws up for the week I am home between vacations. Got in Friday pm, had blood draw today, called to "pre-register" with the hospital. Called OS to verify dates - didn't even need to talk with him or his nurse - all info was with front desk group - could have spoken with them if necessary but really had no further questions. Called to pre-register - they already had info from the OS I just had to verify. My pre-op with os is 2 pm 7/11 and then down to the admit at 3 for that round of stuff and back sometime Saturday 7/12 for the final blood testing stuff. IN at 7 am for 10:15 surgery on the 14th. WOW - I keep waiting for something to change and everything seems so easy. No insurance issues so far.... keep my fingers crossed. I talked to a neighbor of my dad's and nothing was easy when they had bilateral - Maybe we just have really good insurance or something. Or maybe it is just the alaska thing. Not as many people up here. Was it this easy for all of you??? Hopefully the surgery and recovery will be the same ( I can hope!!).
Just looking to see if I am missing something???
