  3. I agree about being so thirsty - the ice chips aren't cutting it! My pain isn't too bad, at least as bad as I expected, but I don't know how much it would hurt without the meds.
  4. How did it go? I'm in my room - surgery was at 7:30. So far so good. My pain is coming almost entirely from the gas.
  5. In the waiting room at the hospital. Good luck everyone!

  7. Getting tomorrow too. I feel nervous and just want to get to it. Worried more about pain and being able to get all my fluids and stuff like that than the surgery itself.

  10. Oh my gosh I know how you feel! My stepson and husband have had colds this week and I'm just praying I don't get it! I'm taking Airborne. Hope that does the trick!
  11. My surgery is the 14th also. I'm excited and also a tiny bit nervous. I've been so looking forward to this and now that it's almost here the gravity of what's about to happen has hit. But I have no doubts and am looking forward to Monday. Good luck to everyone!

  24. From the time of my first appointment with the weight loss center through my final pre-op appointment with my surgeon they have weighed me every time, and emphasized if I gained any weight during that process my insurance company would not approve my surgery.

  26. I know this is ultimately a question for my surgeon but I'd like to know how others have dealt with the issue of taking medications the day of surgery. I'm currently taking two medications for depression and anxiety and I can't go more than about half a day after missing a dose before I get some very nasty withdrawal symptoms. I'm pretty worried about this. It will be difficult enough to deal with the pain etc. of surgery without having to go through withdrawal as well.

  28. I don't understand how there can even be anything to poop when you're only on a liquid diet. Anybody know why this is?
