I was in the beginning stage of a cold or some sort of a respiratory virus on the day I was scheduled for surgery. My Dr said no to surgery that day and I was relieved . It was a good call, I ended up with a fever of 102 and it settled in my chest. It would've made for a difficult recovery from surgery. I rescheduled and had surgery 3 weeks later. It all worked out, it was just a nuisance to reschedule all of the plans I had for the recovery from surgey. I am happy we rescheduled.

It's been four weeks since my surgery so I am still on soft foods. I have been to restraunts several times. I usually look online at the menu to decide if there is anything on it that will work. Usually certain soups and tuna salad will work and I suppose eggs could be ordered for breakfast. It not as easy at this stage but options will open up slowly when I move to the next stage.

Mine is the same as yours, only I didn't have to do a liquid diet pre op.

Good luck!

It's been three weeks since my surgery. I felt calm too before surgery. I had plenty of moments of stress beforehand . Surgery went well and recovery was much easier than I expected. The worst part was trying to get the fluids down the first week after surgery and I was moving a bit slower than usual. Otherwise, it's been a good experience and I'm happy I had surgery.

I had surgery at 11:30am and went home later that day around 8:30. No problems .

Have a great first day back!

Crush the pills that can be crushed and add the powder to an ounce or so of crystal light. Some pills that are time released can't be crushed.

I have Aetna . On the 31st of December I went in for my sleeve and had to reschedule because I could feel a cold starting. There were no problems with the reschedule, I called and was given another date of January 20th. I showed up on the 20 th and had my sleeve with no issues. Good luck!
