Topic: RE: Disappointed
I'm sorry that your doc was sick. I hope Monday they give you a nice quick date, waiting is a killer. I do have to say, I went in on 11/26 and didn't end up having surgery . (Hives from nerves) When I did go in on 12/11, I felt more at eas about it. Everything happens for a reason, you want your doc to be in top health for your surgery. Still, sorry you're disappointed.

Your date is coming up quick, bet you're SO excited! ..... It' beginning to look alot like CHRISTMAS!!!! What a pretty day today, if you didn't have to be driving in it, huh? Am very excited for you, just a few days away. What does your surgeon require (if anything) for pre op?

Topic: RE: Really Tired- Before Surgery
Have you been getting enough protein?
My dietician told me if I was feeling tired, I could add another protein drink for the day. I tried that one day, but felt it threw me off for the timing of the rest of my drinks.
Hold on tight, it's almost here! Too bad the day before surgery has to be spent near the water closet, as I have to drink two bottles of bowel cleanse. Yuck!
Today was the hardest for me. While my family sat down to a Christmas dinner, I had my bowl of broth, my SF jello, and my protein drink. Putting the leftovers away was even harder, then they were right in my face.
Take care! It's almost here!

Topic: VSG on 12/30
Anyone had the VSG recently? I too, as I'm sure alot of you were or are, am worried about it and if it is the right decision. Any input on VSG surgery? Thanks.

Well, I think I am feeling a lot beter than you.lol Cuz I don't have one. j/k
that does sound disgusting and I have seen a lot of gory things in my life but I think I would have to pass out if I saw one of them sticking out my side. not to mention, having to drain it a few times a day.
Ouch, double ouch!!!!
Good luck to you guys. I have some liq vicodin. I think you need it more than me.
