  1. I haven't had the gas pain but I've had patients who have. That's the part I'm dreading. I've already packed my gas x strips. Def take some of those. They are the bomb!! Lol. I'm now choking down mag citrate. YUCK. But I added sf fruit punch Water flavor packet to cherry med and is ALMOST tolerable. I got the gasx strips. That was the one thing I was told to get
  2. I have broth, Jello, sf Popsicles, and sprite. Also got sf Powerade. Wishing I'd bought tortilla Soup broth.... I'm still on for 0830. I am feeling some melatonin early tonight so I can sleep. I'm starting to be hungry too but I think it's cause there's a food commercial on every 5 seconds lol Yes in not watching tv or if I do I walk out during commercials. I didn't know they have different kinds of broth like that I'm getting excited. I'm not as nervous as I was a few days ago. Have you had gas pains before? I haven't but everyone that I talk to say you can get them all over your body and it's painful.
  3. Oh they called me the other day and told me to come in at 730 instead of 830...
  4. Ive never had broth by itself before but i will be trying it out
  5. Im hungry. I have been loading up with apple juice and cranberry juice since they were listed as clear liquids on my sheet. I just finished packing now im about to go shopping for more clear liquids. Other than that im hungry lol
  6. They gave me pills to take. I didnt have to do the mag citrate. ..but the meds are nasty too
  7. My insurance covered a lot of it. I paid about $25 for my meds at cvs
  8. Im due for surgery on the 16th. I asked my doctor about it because I saw a few comments about it. He said its not going to hold you in like people think because your insides are still going tomove around. Most doctors don't automatically give you one but they are available upon request. Have you asked your doctor about it. I had a friend who liked the binder and also one who said it was uncomfortable and not worth it.
  9. I still got to pack and fill my prescriptions. What all did they tell you to do and take on Sunday
  10. I bought a liquid multivitamin and a liquid calcium supplement from vitamin world in the mall. I heard the liquid vitamins absorb better.
