Im ready for Friday

Hey everyone, thank you for all the support. as you most know my surgery is on friday.. Even after the bad website someone sent me, and then the doctor saying that I had to see a cardiologist. The doctors office called on Friday and sai that my xrays looked good, but I still have to go in on Tues to see the cardiologist for insurance reasons and stuff. However she also told me that I have to go back over to the hospital and give some more blood, somehow they dropped mine and now they dont have enough. Just when you think you can give enough blood. She also told me I have to be on a liquid diet on two days before surgery and they are giving me neomycin some med, but they didnt give me a bowel prep, Should I do one myself? SO tell me everyone, what was your last big meal?? I dont know what I should eat... love you guys jen

Jennifer, I wish you the best on your surgery this Friday. My surgeon required a bowel prep, I thought it was standard procedure. My last big meal was a steak dinner. Take care, James

Jennifer, Good luck with your surgery on Friday. I didn't have a bowel prep either, and I had to be on a liquid diet as well. As far as the last meal, I think everyone is different. I chose to not go out and stuff myself or anything, for me that was the reason that I was having the surgery to begin with, and food had to much control in my life to begin with. ( It still does kinda) So I just had a regular meal, actually I think that it was a sandwich and it wasn't even that good! Now, I am at a point where I can pretty much eat anything I want in moderation, so I don't feel like there is any food that I am really missing...Good luck!!!!!! Cathy

well i wanted my last meal to be fat matts rib shack ....but that is a long story and my last meal with beer and pizza from mello mushroom .....so it was not too bad .....but them ribs would have been better i think LOL LOL LOL Laura Still wanting some fat matts ribbs !!!!!

Jennifer, If you don't have to do bowel prep, then...you lucky, lucky girl! The stuff you drink is twice as bad as what it makes you do!! If you decide to do it, it's a 90 mL bottle of Phospho Soda - my doc said 1/2 at 5:00pm the night before surgery and 1/2 at 8:00pm - and, no, you don't stay up all night with it. My last meal was chicken quesadilla rolls from T.G.I.Fridays...but that kind of got me over it...I haven't craved them since. Amanda
