Topic: RE: Whew- finally the board is open!
I was able to get my sleepstudy done last week due to a cacellation. But I still do not know if I am ok to go for the 14th. I already took off work but they are aware the date may change. I am calling in the morning and hopefully will have more answers since there is only two weeks until my date. I go in Thursday for more preop testing and those results are only good for 30 days. Better have my surgery before then or I will go crazy!!!

You guys I'm super excited! My date is 2/3 and I'm getting amazingly nervous. A little freaked out that all of the pre op testing is done the day of surgery. I haven't been to the doctor since August so I'm nervous! I am just going to pray it all goes well. I don't think I can take a delay!

Hi Cathrine. I'm on the final stretch as well. I am having surgery Febuary 2 and the excitement is finally outweighing the anxiety. Last day of full liquids and then it's all about clear liquids tomorrow. Are you having your surgery locally or are you traveling?

I think I'm probably a little nervous too but mostly excited. The nervousness will come up when I'm actually admitted to the hospital and there alone getting blood drawn or whatever before surgery. That's what happened when I had my upper 'scope about a week ago.
May we all have uneventful surgeries and smooth, pain free recoveries.
I, too, have dreaded the summer because I'm always too hot. I guess I won't believe I'll feel different until I see that I'm much slimmer and actually feeling more comfortable. :)

I'm on the final stretch. Originally scheduled for Jan. 23rd my surgeon rescheduled because his usual surgical assistant wasn't available. What? Another 8 days of liquid diet? I've been on that since Jan. 2nd. Anyway, it turned out fine cause I had my final weigh in on the 19th and have indulged in a few meals since then. Now back on regular full liquid diet this weekend and then just clear liquids on Monday and Tuesday before the dreaded bowel prep (pico-salax) on Tuesday late afternoon.
