I received a call this afternoon from my doctor's office. They are postponing my surgery (which was scheduled for May 21) until I have the abscessed tooth taken care of. I go see the oral surgeon on May 20...my antibiotics will be done by that following Saturday. Hopefully they will get me in quickly to get the tooth out. My Lap Band surgeon won't even talk to me until that's done. I don't blame him and I understand why he won't do the surgery until the tooth is out and the infection gone. It's just sooooooooo, depressing.

I was so excited and focused and now I feel very lost. I know this is only a minor set back, but it's just frustrating. I know right now they are booking into June for surgeries. I have a feeling it is going to be some time in July by the time I get the tooth taken care of and they set me up again. And...to make it even more "fun," I have been on protein shakes now for 4 weeks to help me lose weight. I got down to where I needed to be, but for the life of me, I'm not sure how much longer I can tolerate the shakes
Okay, deep breaths...this is just a minor set back and it will all be good soon enough. I just had to get it off my chest. Thanks for listening.
