Surgery date changed
I think I am very very very lucky in that I do not have to do a required pre-op diet. My surgeon just has you do the every fun "cleanse" the day before. I am doing on my own 2 protein shakes a day and one meal. Really trying hard to not do the "last supper" thing. Its hard but I think I will be better off in the long run if I don't think as if I will NEVER eat certain things again. I agree that if they called me in the am I would FLY right down as fast as I could....its the waiting now that is making me a little nutty. BUt all in good time I guess, I've waited this long whats 17 days right! Do you have to do a pre-op diet? I find it interesting that surgeons can differ so much in their requirements.
Gl luck shana, my open RNY is the 7th of Nov I go up on the 30th to do all my pre op stuff with the surgeon's office then go back on the 6th because i have a 170 mile trip to make from home to the hosp. south dakota is pretty spread out only two big city's that does this type of surgery . I'm more concerned about the trip home. take care and I'm with you I'd do it right now I hate the wait. but not to much longer for me only 10 oh wait tommorrow is 9 days away YESSSS take care Cathy
