Went to my pcp and got my physical and all is well, i see dr. hung on Wednesday and then surgery on the 1st. Since being on this website i have learned that one thing is for sure, we all are different and each doctor has his own set of rules....some of the things that are in here my doctor is against, acutally most of it is, when i tell him i was on here when i see him wednesday he will probably mess his pants, i have alot of ?'s (thanks to all of you!) and maybe we can sit and discuss these. I am not nervous, I am excited, I am willing to do this to my body to save my life and hopefully live with less pain. Onwards and upwards! :rolleyes:

    yes, everyones Dr does say different things. Hence the advice you hear alot of " follow your Drs instructions".

    There's never too many questions or any "stupid" questions.

    Glad you have your list ready for your Dr. You will do wonderfully.

    I have noticed that every doctor has their own ways, also. I know when I get a fill I am on liquids for 3 days, then mushy for 3 days then back to my regular food. Other people say they can have their regular food the next day. So listen to your doctor and dietitian and not everyone else. We all can help with questions but not what your doctor tells you. You will do fine. Write down all your questions and write the answers, don't depend on memory.

    Good luck.
