No Update Yet

I should be receiving a phone call within a few days from the Neurosurgical Dept. At Penn Medicine. This phone call will be the outline of the final plan for the surgery and if any changes to the original plan were made after the Doctors received my angiogram info from the tests last week.
I will also receive final instructions to prepare for the surgery. Until that call, I really have nothing new to share other than I have been following the advice of my Doctor in regards to staying as relaxed as possible, keeping a close watch on my blood pressure ( I check it 4-5 times a day)and not bending over to the point of putting my head below my heart. Now the not bending over rule is the hardest to follow. I have fought myself at least 30-40 times in the process of bending over....stopping myself just in time.....and stooping to do whatever I feel it is I need to do at that moment. Whether it be feeding the dogs, picking up a piece of lint, or a toy from the floor. I never had such a sense of how many times I bend over in a day until now!
Oh well......as soon as I have news, I will share.

Love
Debra
