  1. Thank you all for the encouragement , I greatly appreciate it . Still doing ok , headache still hanging on , tomorrow I see the dr. And go for pre-op , surgery sch for 7:30am on oct 22 .
  2. My surgery is Oct. 22 , I am on my 2 week diet , I am starving , my head hurts , and I keep saying is this really necessary to make someone suffer like this . By the time surgery comes I will be so weak, drinking my protein shakes , they are horrible , eating jello . Sorry for the whining , just needed to vent . Hope tomorrow is better .
  3. My airway is small and I had surgery last year , so I wrote down the tube size on a card from the hospital and carry it with me , when I go for pre-op I will let them know then to share with the anthesia Drs. My surgery is the 22nd of October too , good luck !
  4. I'm using opti fast , that is what my surgeon prefers , still putting them down , but oh wow , not good . Just taking it one day at a time ...
