I start my liquid diet tomorrow. I'm actually really excited to start! I bought two cases of slim fast today which will get me through Friday. I plan to buy another case tomorrow at work so that I can keep some in the fridge there and won't have to cart them to work each day.
Thyroid results didn't come back in a positive way. Received a letter from the endocrinologist. He believes that I have papillary carcinoma in the right lobe and should have it removed. I have a surgical consult on the 29th and am going to find another endo for a second opinion this week. I really don't want this to get in the way of the lap band surgery, especially since I'm about to embark on two weeks of subsisting on slim fast, but I know that it's much more serious and I need to treat it as such. I'm definitely in denial about it though. I won't believe or accept that I actually have cancer until I hear it from another Endo or the surgeon.
For now, off to bed to wake up and begin my new life tomorrow!

Hi there- congrats on the surgery date and good luck with the pre-op diet ;-)
ReplyDeleteI hope everything is okay and that the visit with the 2nd endo is helpful.
