pre-opt day also can be read on my profile

So today was my pre-opt day. I woke up and had to take my last final for this semster. It didnt start on time so that put me off track. Then I went to my place to get my clothes that needed washing and got on the road to come to houston. Well my mom had told me not eat anything (drink I should say) before i came there besides water. So that ment I was really sleepy but I made it to her job where I parked and she drove. We were 20 mins late to the dr. appointment, but they were behind anyways. Well they handed me my paper work and said to go to university and what to do on monday. Well she had also called me to tell me to be at the hospital at 600 am. b/c i am the first surgery of the day. i was second now im first. That means I have to wake up at 430 and be ready to leave by 5 to get there on time. good thing they put me to sleep b/c i will be realy sleepy if i sleep at all that night. We got to university filled out lots of papers and went upstairs. I had to pea in a cup and then get an ekg and then they had to draw blood. This is were things go wrong. I am a very hard person to stick. My vains are small and my body dose not like to give up my blood. It took 2 nurses or blood techs and 4 sticks l8ter to get these tubes filled. plus they blew one of my vains. now what am i supposed to do on surgery when they have to do an iv thats going to be a trip. then after that i vwent and picked up my car from moms job brought it home and we went and got our hair done. Mine needed it after seeing the pick they took. MY hair is almost to my shoulders now man its getting long. Then I was starving b/c b4 we went to get our hair done I tried to get a smothie from smoothie king. my mom told me to get the lo carb protein shake. bad idia b/c it was nastey i wasnt feeling at all so that was a waste of 5 dollors. Like ive said beeing on these liquids is hard so mom wanted mexican so we went to a mexican resturant i had soup and some quesdias. It was good but now im nausus b/c of the amout of grease in the quesadias. should have just stuck to the soup b/c it was great. mom had soup as well. So now im sick and its all b/c i was bad, but tomrrows a better day and i will do better on protein shakes and water. Have a blessed day.

guess im not the only one who cheated on the liquid diet :) i felt so bad afterward but i got back on track...i have to get my egd tomorrow so there is no eating or drinking for me either...the weather is bad and my doc is 90 minutes away so we have to leave very early...anyway hope all goes well on monday!!

You only have a few more days to go. Just think of that and stay on trac****il then. Please drink all your shakes for the next couple of days and you will be fine. I love you!!!

I know you don't have long to go.  We are both having surgery the same day.  You want to make sure you stick to your doctors directions for sure.  I heard of patients that were opened up, then closed back up, as they were too fatty inside and it was too risky to do surgery on them.

I have terrible veins also.  I have to drink a lot of water to have them be able to get blood from me.  With the surgery, they do the IV in a vein in the hand.  Usually those veins are a lot easier to get at. 

Good Luck Monday and be good the next couple of days.
