Surgery Prep

Yesterday I was back at the eye doctor's office to get my eyes measured. The good news is that Dr. Sifri has worked on someone whose eyes are worse than mine. He says it will be a month or so after surgery before he will test my eyes again to see if I still need glasses. That gives the implanted lens time to settle into my eye.
Apparently I will be awake during the surgery - that lasts like 10 to 15 minutes. But I will be very high. If I'm nervous, I can take a xanax before the surgery.
Today I went to my regular doctor for the pre-op physical. I was in her office on Monday and somehow between Monday and Friday I lost 4 pounds. So now I'm ready - just waiting on Wednesday.
