Ready to gnaw off my own arm....

I have been on liquids for 24 hours now, one more day to go til surgery. Although I hope this suffering is not in vain, I haven't heard from the docs office about insurance, yet. Fingers still crossed I have had to fast before, but the lonest being 12 hrs. I feel like I am gonna die...LOL i know I am not but thats how i feel. i wonder around the house moaning "I am hungry" maybe I am being a baby.......but I AM HUNGRY!!!!!!!! -Christina

Keep sipping your water. You will get thru this!!! Go out shopping or something to take your mind off of food. That's what I did. The 2nd day is the hardest but you will make it. Dee

Christina, I remember those days all to well. You will get through it. Just remember that you are doing this for a purpose, and what a wonderful one it will be. Christie

Thanx ladies........ Your right about that, all 4 a good cause. -Christina

I thought the liquid diet 2 days pre-op was supposed to be Clear Liquids only. Protein drinks don't qualify as clear liquids I think. It's supposed to flush out your system before surgery. Anybody hear differently? I've head people ask me this before and I don't want to be giving them incorrect information. I know I only had Fruit20, water & chicken broth before my surgery. Dee

My last name is Skorak, I am going to be @ st. Francis...I don;t think they have the e-mail thing yet..do they?? -christina

Christina Just seeing this and wishing you well. (gnaw off your own arm, rofl! -- too funny) Dianne
