worried
Hey I have been on optifast for 19 days and the first 10 I had problems with low blood sugars I called the nurse atthe hospital and she said I was doing the right thing and to stop my metphormin and I did twice this week they still went low one of those times beingmy fault my pills come already prepared and I accidently took my diabetic meds now yesterday and today no low sugars but had apiece of rye toast with very little peanut butter now I'm worried they will know and cancel my surgery which is dec 3, 2014 anyone know if that will happen?
Because you had a piece of toast? The only way they will know is if you tell them. I had a wedding exactly half way through my 14 day pre op liquid diet. I went to the wedding, enjoyed all of the food and went right back to liquids the next day. My surgery went on as planned. Follow your diet to the letter between now and yor surgery, you will be fine.

I doubt they will cancel your surgery because you ate a piece of toast. But the best way to know for sure is to call your doc's office in the morning and ask.

Please note: I AM NOT A DOCTOR. If you want medical advice, talk to your doctor. Whatever I post, there is probably some surgeon or other health care provider somewhere that disagrees with me. If you want to know what your surgeon thinks, then ask him or her. Check out my blog.
