Hi to all!
What a day we had! We went to the newbie orientation, then ended up in a meditation session (which really did relax us). We ate lunch then saw the mind and body counselor, nutritionist, and then Dr. Pankaj Vashi an internal gastrointestinal doctor.
This doctor was great! He right away called our insurance company Blue Cross and Shield and got approval for the PET scan that we needed and couldn't get approval for in Scottsbluff, hallelujah! Brian is also scheduled for another esophageal scope on Monday morning. These tests will determine future treatment plan. What is so great is that it all happens in one locale where all information can be accessed by all the providers.
We see a surgeon on Wednesday and that is the last appointment we know of until tests and plan is formulated.
Dr. Vashi thought Brian looked pretty good for a 57 year old man.
Bye for now!
Mary
