    I am so happy tonight!!! I completed my education/exercise class today along with measurements, last weigh in and lab work. I will begin complete liquid diet on Friday and begin antibiotics on Monday along with the yucky magnesium citrate. Looking forward to Tuesday morning!!! I'm excited, nervous and scared all at the same time. I guess this is normal. Are there any of you that feel the same way???

    6 months worth of appts, nut eval, sleep study, pulmonologist. Last appt was Sept 16, scheduled surgery that day for October 29 and finally got insurance approval last Thursday. Began preop diet the next day and surgery is a little over a week away.

    I've been on this site since March 2013, I totally agree with everyone that this is a very good informative site. I have finished up my all my appts except for the final one with the surgeon and it is Sept 16 2013. Nervous and excited all in one. Don't really know what all to ask anyone so any info will be very appreciative.
