Topic: HELP

Has anyone had surgery from Dr. Davidson?  I am scheduled for surgery on the 29th of October but have not lost the 20 pounds yet he wanted me to.  Will he cancel my surgery?  I have only lost 7 lbs so far.  I have not been put on a liquid diet yet.  When will that happen.  I don't see Dr. D till the 22nd.  Please help.  I am getting nervous.  Also, I only have to pay the $350. program fee to Dr. D and the co-pay for the hospital.  Will these need to be paid up front , I know for Dr. D but what about the hospital?

I am scheduled for October 29th and have not been told to go on a liquid diet.  I have Dr. Davidson in Dallas, TX.  I go on the 22nd for Stress test and see doctor.  He wanted me to lose 20 lbs before surgery but I have only lost 7 so far.  What do I need to do?  Will he cancel my surgery?

I'm so sorry to hear about your sinus infection.  We prepare for so long it really sucks when a stupid virus puts us off, but better to we well when you have your surgery so you don't have a harder time healing.  Hopefully you'll be scheduled straight away.

Hello
I was scheduled for surgery today but, due to a sinus infection, I was given antibiotics and rescheduled to get surgery after I finish them.  I had my period today as well.  Before I was prepared for surgery, they provided a pad and underwear from the hospital.  So, I believe having your period will not affect your surgery at all.
Sincerely,
Miky

Glad to know I'm not the only nervous one.  I'm not scared just nervous about all the unknowns.  I'm a control freak, you know.  :D

My mom is flying in from California tonight and it will be so great to have her here. 

As far as the hospital..;.. I'm taking all the normal toiletries, a blanket and pillow (and one for mom to since she'll be staying the night) my laptop, some books and a change of clothes to come home in. 

As far as coming home... I started picking up all ther fixings to make an amazing black bean soup that I can puree up for my puree stage.  yummy!

Well best of luck to all of you have surgery in the next few days.  I'll be joining you all on Friday!   Lot's of prayers and hugs going all of your ways.

How are you holding up?  i am nervous and not sleeping well, i'm not so much worried about the procedure as I am worried about the after part and the head hunger.  ALso I am trying to coordinate all the child care for my four kids and making sure my husband is covered for meals and preschool.  Also trying to get the house clean so I don't come home to a mess.  Most of all just really nervous.  What are you bringing with you to the hospital and have you bought anything for whe you get home?  I;m rambling, sorry.
