My first encounter with UPMC

Here we go.... I am on my way to UPMC... YaY!!!! Not! Stopping by to grab some grub right now. I slept like crap last night, the baby was up and down all night and I had to listen to the constant drip of water running in my kitchen faucet to ensure our pipes would not freeze again last night. So here I am all groggy and certainly not bright eyed and bushy tailed riding in the back seat of my own vehicle as I get taxied to my first appointment with the surgeon. If I haven't told you before I'm telling you now, I'm meeting with the chief surgeon of endocrinology, Dr. Sally Carty. I've read she has horrible bed side but is very good at what she does and in the end that's all that matters. I must admit, I haven't been really nervous up to this point but I'm sure once I walk in to the hospital I will start to have a mini panic attack. We are already starting to hit rush hour traffic, just great! Anxiety level just went up a notch haha It's 7:45 and we just past the DVE building. I have to be there at 9:30 to get an ultrasound done (I'm sure to check for any growth) before I see the doctor at 10:30. Hopefully we make it there on time. I hate being a worrier by nature.
