  1. Good luck and best wishes for a speedy recovery... Keep us posted!!
  2. I am anemic and was told I have a vit D deficiency (but I live in WA state so I expect that). I was told to take a calcium w/ vitamin D supplement. My surg date is set for 8/13 after 9 or 10 long mos. If the surgeon has a cancellation I will have it sooner. Just reading, researching and getting things ready as I continue the wait game.
  3. Good luck you'll do great!! Sending positive thoughts and prayers!! My day is 8/13 unless they have a cancellation sooner..
  4. After almost a year of waiting between pre op visits and finally a visit with the surgeon, I have my surgery sched for Aug 13th which seems even further away. The surgeon did ask me if I was willing to move up the date if he had a cancellation to which I said yes!!! I'm planning to start a pre op diet at the end of July which will consist of 2 shakes a day and a small meal a day. I'm so ready to get on with the surgery bit I enjoy ready lots of info on this site. I will also start going back to the support group mtgs after surg. By then, I'll have more to identify with... :-) Good luck to you!!
  5. Hi, I am new to this site and very grateful for all of the information/feedback that I am reading. After 10 long months of pre-op testing, visits, hoops required by my insurance Co. (Group Health) etc... I finally have my surgery date to be sleeved, August 13, 2014. I am so ready!! My surgeon did say that if there is a cancellation, that I can have the option of moving up my surgery date (I agreed to that). I think as time draws nears, I'll probably start to get nervous, but I have been waiting for this for so long, that I'm looking forward to it. I had my gallbladder removed in 2011 and I'm hoping that it will keep me from having a lot of the issues that I see some people have post op. I look forward to following your thread and wish you the best of luck on your journey!!!
  6. Well, I finally had my visit with the surgeon after what seems like 10 long months. My tentative surgery date is August 13th, unless there is a cancellation then it will be sooner. I am mentally ready to go..
