The day is getting near

Well, I only have 8 more days before surgery. I can't wait !! Question to any of Dr. Overcash patients or anyone really ...... His office told me to bath using Phisoderm soap at least the last three days before surgery..............but I have not been able to find the soap.....any ideas? also how much Mag. Citrate do you have to drink?

CONGRATS TO YOU KANDY. I AM NOT SURE WHERE TO PURCHASE THAT PRODUCT FROM. BUT MY DR. REQUIRES THAT WE US AN ANTIBATERIAL SOAP LIKE DIAL. YOU CAN PURCHASE THAT AT WALMART. AND THEY EVEN HAVE THE WALMART BRAND IF YOU CHOSE TO USE THAT. MY DR. ALSO REQUIRES THAT WE DRINK 240ML OF MAG. CITRATE. YOU CAN PURCHASE THAT AT THE WALMART ON APPALACHEE PARKWAY FOR $1.12. AND IT IS 292ML. BUT JUST TO MAKE SURE, CALL YOU DR. OFC. TO SEE IF THEY WILL RECOMMEND AN ALTERNATIVE PRODUCT TO USE. GOD BLESS YOU ON YOUR SURGERY AND RECOVERY... HAVE A BLESSED DAY... RUTH B.

I had Dr. Overcash and am doing great! I believe you can get both products at any drugstore. Because my mobility was limited before surgery and I didnt get out much, I actually ordered them from drugstore.com, plus they had free shipping at the time. We had to drink the entire bottle of mag citrate, cherry flavor is supposed to go down better than the lemon, I wasnt gonna do a taste test so I went by other's suggestions. Having WLS is a wonderful way to start the new year. Good luck with your surgery, keep us posted on how you are doing. Amy -128lbs.

Hello Kandy, Congrats on your upcoming surgery date! Now that's a wonderful way to welcome the new year! Yes the entire bottle of mag. citrate, I chellied it in the refridgerator and drank it with a straw in one to two minutes tops! Didn't even taste it in my mouth since I put the straw as far into my mouth as I could without making myself sick and that did the trick! Good luck and God Bless!! Johanna Lopez
