I am posting this because i thought the thiamine test is interesting- it has to be light protected so the phlebotomist had to wrap tin foil around the tube. Then she has to do a bunch of random things to it like spin it and freeze it... why? I have no idea.
Also, I spoke to my surgeon's office because they said in our first meeting that the DEPO-PRIVERA birth control shot is bad and they wanted me to change it and they ended up calling me back and saying not to be on a birth control until after my surgery because the estrogen will or can cause blood clots. If i were to continue a form of birth control like the pill or something then i would have to have an IVC filter... which is an octopus like thing the put in through my neck to catch any blood clots before the go into my brain or heart, i really don’t want that little dealy because i think it will leave a scare on my neck and you are awake when it's removed.
I have my mandatory support group meeting tonight; if anything exciting happens i will let you know!?!
