7 days away... and I am shaking in my super cute summer time sandals! I am trying to be positive but I am scared!  Any advice for these jitters? They seem to be getting worse the closer I get to surgery?!?!

Also, my Dr (Dr John Oldham) didn't prescirbe a PPI for post op. Is that normal? (I am having VSG) I thought most people got a PPI. Hmmm.

Ok guys, I know I don't check in enough on OH but I do appreciate all the warm wishes in my mailbox!! thank you :)

You need to ask him all the questions while you can because in the past you did not see him again unless you were seriously ill.  I have had no problems with my surgery but I have not been able to see him.  When you are told that, they stick to it.  He did my lapband.  I went to Jackson Purchase Hosp in Mayfield, KY.  The NP has changed so I don't know how Lori handles VSG.  Petra usually answers the phone and makes appointments.  She is great.  I think Dr. Oldham is a good surgeon.
Advice for jitters - Don't worry, be happy.  Think Thin.
Take care,
