Glad you are home. Hoping and praying for continued improvement.Do you think you could have dry mouth? I recently discovered that was why I was thirsty all the time, even right after I drank water. My doc told me that a lot of the meds I am on-- protonix, zyxal, synthroid- cause dry mouth. I have had good results with biotene.Saying a prayer for all of you!Breathe deeply and know it's all going to be fine! Saying a prayer.We have the same date!Great news!!!!!!How scary that must have been. I think we should all be given Xanax for a month before surgery! And a spa trip and massage would be good.Good luck everyone who is on for surgery tomorrow. Saying a prayer for you all and looking forward to hearing from you.I have severe arthritis in my ankles and feet. I have had several rounds of cortisone shots in my feet and ankles (ouch!!!!!!). I have trouble walking much. I have done Peggy Cappa's Yoga for the rest of us. It is a good workout--lots of stretching much while seated. I am 56 and pre op. (surgery 2/28) My Ortho says that losing the weight will relieve the pain a lot. I hope so.I know what you mean. I was a nervous wreck for the past month. (My surgery is 2/28/13) y husband and kids are supportive, but it was t until I started my dearest friends that I knew this was right. They love me enough to encourage me to get healthy and they know I can't keep dieting/losing/gaining. I know it's not easy but it's easier than suffering fat.I would too if possible. Saf3382@yahoo.com56 here in central New Jersey! Surgery 2/28 and just started pre-op diet today. My doc does not do a liquid diet but a soft well cooked low fat high protein diet.Best wishes for a rapid recovery!
