Topic: Preop done/liquids started
Good day!
I was in today for my preop and I think that everything went well. My surgery is booked for next Tuesday so I have started my liquid diet as well.
I am very excited and still not really nervous. Even my blood pressure was good while I was there this morning. Looking forward to having the surgery behind me. I am really hoping that it won't be too hot in the hospital! It was warm and sticky in there today. I am going to pack my fan to take and hope for the best
.
I am very much looking forward to being sleeved

Topic: RE: finally got good news
thanks everyone. I start my 8 days of liquids next weekend. I am waiting now to find out when I go for pre-op stuff. I am hoping I don't have to do it all over again. They told me in Dec. that I would not have to do it all again. Maybe I can get away with doing the blood and ekg done here. I hope, but they will say no u have to do it here. Which is alright for them but it costs me over a 100 just for the drive up and back. Oh well I will just have to wait and see.
David may get home next week but he will have to have the VON come to do dressing changes everyday. So I will have to have my family help out when I am gone and when I get home. Nothing is gonna stop me me now. lol 15 days to go. yipeeee
