Got my surgery date!
Went to meet my surgeon today and got my surgery date! No optifast because my liver is a normal size and my surgery is January 8th!
Pre-Op nutritional refresher on December 20th and then they will call for my pre admit and I'll be on the losers bench!
Thanks to everyone that offered encouragement and information. It's been around a year since I asked for my referral and I'm at St. Joe's in Hamilton and my surgeon will ideally be Dr. Hong.
Congratulations! I had Dr. Hong. He's a very good surgeon. You will be in good hands.
Merry Christmas!
