My date is Feb 27th so I am down to days also. I had my gallbladder out last week, so I am on day 8 of clear liquids and it is the hardest thing I have ever done! I may never be able to eat jello and broth again once this is done LOL Hang in there and we will look back later and this will have meant nothing really...thats what I hear anyways

I am being banded the 27th. I know that surgeons follow different guidelines but 2 weeks ago I had to have an EKG,upper GI, chest xray,gallbladder ultrasound, EGD and bloodwork. They found my gallbladder was in great need to be removed and I had that done 2/13. I did not have a sleep apnea test but did have a physc evaluation that had to be done before they submitted my ins for final approval. They have done no pre op testing at all?
