Topic: Surgery on Friday 9/11 - 3 days!
Anyone having their surgery on Friday?  People thought I was crazy to schedule on 9/11 but it was my first available day so I went for it.  Unless there is a terrorist attack on the hospital, IM GOOD! 

Whoo - nerves kicking in!

I have been wondering this also. I seem to scan the post when I am looking at them to see if anyone has the same one.

I'm interested in hearing from people who have the same surgeon. Is it possible to search for this information?

Topic: RE: 9/8 Surgery Date--YEA!!
Well...it's now less than 8 hours until I have to be at the hospital.  I have had an abundance of nervous energy the past couple of days.  I'm not afraid about the surgery, I trust the surgeon.  I think it's the fear of the unknown.  Yes, I've been to the pre-op nutrition class, I've had all the pre-op testing done.  I think it's just not knowing how I will respond after the surgery...will I be able to eat the protein I'm supposed to eat?  Will I be able to get all my liquids in?  Will food have a funny taste?  I've bought several items...jello, pudding, cottage cheese, yogurt, low fat cheese, protein drinks and poweder.  I feel like I've got all the stuff it's just a matter of how it will all work. 

I appreciate all your thoughts and prayers...good luck to those of you who go on Wednesday...I'll say a prayer for all of you.  I won't be able to get online until I come home from the hospital but will do so as soon as I can.  Take care and GOOD LUCK on embarking on your new journey to a healthier life!!!

Topic: RE: Pre-Op tomorrow...wish me luck..geez I'm getting nervous!
I also have my pre-op tomorrow but I also have been on liquids for 4 days now..... I have 9 days to go before my actuall surgery.... I am excited and a little nervous but I realize that I will never be this close again if I back out now.  I think its normal to have jitters. But I also think that it is preparation that will overcome those jitters.
 

Wishing you the best of success.
