Are there any fellow Aussie vegans here? It would be so great to be able to ask questions of each other.

I have been told I will be taking home blood thinners injections too. I once had a D-dime test because of some pain I was having and they suspected a blood clot. The test came back positive but no clot was found on scans, I had the jabs then. For this reason my surgeon doesn't want to take any risks.

Well you will be a winter surgery, best wishes for your 5th July surgery. I've seen several from New South Wales, South Australia, Victoria and one lady,lives in Canberra. Then we have @ Rainbow Warrior,he is a longer-time poster from New South Wales and I treasure all of his advice.
I am in Central Ohio and will be a sometime next month RnY bypass . I can hardly wait for my REBIRTHDAY to come.

5th of July for me. I'm in Australia

Omg I didn't think about this!!! I am 3 weeks pre op. I'll be absolutely gutted if I can no longer swallow! And the act itself causing gas build up and stomach cramps?? Nooo no no noooo!

Just got home from having gastroscopy. My surgeon has it done as a precaution. All good, no issues. Roll on 5th July!

Vegan here! I'm due to have gastric sleeve on 5th July and am trying to work out my pre op diet. Can't seem to find a vegan Multivitamin that can be used post op. The multivitamin melts the surgeon recommended are not vegan :/
