Oh great...my choice of flavors are dishsoap with bitter alcohol or super sweet Lysol! Certianly something to look forward to! Honestly, that is the least of my concerns following surgery. I'll do whatever they tell me I have to...heck, I'm giving up coffee! That shows my degree of willingness! One disgusting drink doesn't worry me a bit.

OMG! I hadn't imagined anything quite so awful....dish soap....yummm....it is what it is...I'm certainly not going to let one disgusting drink scare me off! I wonder if it comes in my choice of flavors...LOL

Hi Everyone. I'm CJ and I'm new here and thought I'd introduce myself. I am scheduled to have a SIPS modified DS on September 14th. I've been lurking, trying to decide which forum I liked best. I finally decided to join here, because people on this site seem warm and friendly, without judgment. I see lots of support, without too much advice giving (except when asked). A few forums I looked at seemed to have some very dominant personalities that were very anti SIPS which kind of scared me off. I'm excited and nervous about this new phase of my life. Today, I had my pre-surgical Upper GI series...gotta love that barium. The radiologist promised me he'd have something that tasted even worse for me after my surgery (keeping a sense of humor)... Since I couldn't have coffee before my test this morning...and I have some other tests that need to be done fasting, I decided I'd use this as an opportunity to go off coffee before the surgery...I'm a little sleepy and a touch cranky, but thankfully no headache! Anyway, I'm sure I have a million questions I want to ask all of you, but for now I just wanted to say hello.
