i have my appt on the 8th and i was going over questions i wanted to ask...is there anything you wished you asked before surgery that you didnt?

what i want to know is what is going to be the allowance for the day of the following things: Carbs, Sugars, Fats, Calories.

i know that they are going to go over diet after surgery but i wanted to know if maybe i wasn't going in the right direction...

thanks!! :)

Sunshine, the nut will also review things that you can do now to improve your chances of success from surgery.  Any changes you can make that will be habits by the time surgery arrives will make life simpler for you and for your surgeon.  Go with you list of questions.  Ask about needed supplements.  Supplies to have on hand before surgery.  Hugs, Kathy

sunshile, my nut even gave me a booklet that went over all that stuff and i referred to it several times.   i do with i would have clarified the sip, sip , sip.  there is no way you can continue to just sip and get in the amount of liquids you need to have to survive.  now i just drink llike normal, don't know if that is right or  not. good luck. vick

Yep.. if she is a good Nut.. she should make herself available to you as needed by phone and email between visits. Good luck! You'll do great!
