The Suspense Is Killing Me....

Sooooo...I have completed all of my requirements for surgery and I have to wait until tomorrow to find out about the insurance.  I am extremely nervous.  ughhhh!!!!

Also, what was the preop like?  In the week before surgery?

CONGRATS milli on getting thru your surgery requirements!!  Nerves are normal my friend..try to focus on a new healthy life!!  Not sure about your dr..does he require 10 liquid diet before surgery? Some do and some dont ..Mine did..its tough the first 3 days, after that it gets easier..You can do it.  Praying you get approval very soon!!
Hugz,

All surgeons are different.  The week before surgery, I did the "3-S" diet - soups, salads & sandwiches.  Three days prior, it was all liquids.  That part was a little hard, but soooooo worth it.  Maybe someone who's used Dr. Clements will chime in and let you know for sure, but I don't think he requires any special diet.  As for the pre-op visit/testing, I only had to do lab work, an EKG and chest xray, piece of cake!

I know your excited!! with my surgeon, Dr. Suggs, he only required for me to do all liquids the day before my surgery which wasnt bad at all..
