Was nervous for awhile there - whew! Just got approval TODAY from insurance company! My date is August 26, 2014. I have the pre-opt meeting tomorrow at 12:30. For some reason we are not required to go on a pre-opt diet but I'm getting in the habit now by supplanting two meals a day with a Protein drink. Like you guys guess I better start preparing like this really is gonna happen!
My questions are: How is it the few days after surgery? Does your stomach hurt? Are you able to walk without pain? Realistically, what's the earliest you can exercise [golf for example - : ) after the surgery? ]How hard is it psychologically to not have anything solid to eat? Guess I should go to the post-surgery forum eh? Also I'm sure tomorrow a lot of questions will be answered.
