Who's? Mine? January 20th is my surgery date.

What happened after you "gulped"?

I'm getting my sleeve on January 20th and have been hearing some horror stories of dry heaves and vomitting. Please tell me this doesn't happen to everyone, does it?

This is my first day on my 10 day pre-surgery liquid diet. I am so hungry! I hope I can do this! Anyone else going thru the same thing as I am?

Pre admission testing was done today. Tomorrow I start my liquid diet. Surgery is January 20th. My questions are: 1. Did you have second thoughts on getting the surgery done? 2. I am stressed out and having anxiety over this surgery, is this common? We're going on vacation on February 17th, I'll be on soft foods by then. I hope I make the right choices and don't get myself sick. I also think that being so stressed out has caused me to get a cold. I hope I don't get a fever, or they won't do surgery. Ugh! Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

How long before my pre-op testing should I quit e-cigarettes? Just wondering

How many days in advance should I stop the E-cigarette?

I quit smoking (yay me!) and have been using the E-Cigarette. I have Pre-Op testing and blood work on January 9th. I don't think they're looking for nicotine, but if they are, I should be ok...right? By the way, what does Pre-Op testing consist of? How long did it take? Thanks for letting me babble about my personal issues lately. Take Care.

I too, am scheduled to have my Sleeve surgery on January 20th! I'm excited, scared and nervous all at the same time. Good luck to you!

My Insurance approved me for surgery! My surgery date is January 20th. I have pre-op testing on January 9th and then I start my 10 day liquid diet (I'm not looking forward to that). Merry Christmas to me!!!!

I'm so scared of this too. I would love to hear from people about this topic. I have a lot of hair and don't want to lose it.
