I know I made the right decision to have surgery I think I just needed to my feeling validated by the Dr's staff . I also know that with everyone support I can get through this. Does anyone have suggestions on what to bring the day of surgery?:)

I'm having the surgery .I am not going to let inconsiderate staff stop me from this important move in my life.

Thanks Vicki. What kind of pain meds should I use for after the surgery?:wub:

Thanks Vicki and Live Love Laugh for your support. I have my first post -op appt on the 28th of July. I will call you Vicki if I need :wub: you thanks. It 's Kim the fill in nurse

The Dr. and I talked he said that some are crabby and that I shouldn't let it get to me. That's easy for him to say but I'm having surgery has planned .

I just talked to Dr. Hoffman and he told me that people have complained about this staff member. So I'm considering having the surgery anyway.

Certain members of my Dr's staff are mean and judgmental, I asked a nurse about it and she said that they do it on purpose I told her not with me.

I don't know what anyone can do? I did cancel the surgery yesterday. The person I spoke to told me that some members of hie staff are mean on purpose. I told her that with me I wasn't having it.:wub:

It was alot of reasons the Dr Hoffman's nurses and the fact I just didn't feel supported by them. I shouldn't have to be defensive with his some members of this staff.

I'm having a hard time wrestling with my decision not to have surgery . Now I wonder if I should call them back after I canceled yesterday surgery was for July 20th. I'm worried that what would say and do . I need advice .

Thanks RAINWI I just didn't feel it was right .

I decided bot have the surgery. I don't feel I'm ready for it.

I decided not to have surgery.

I decided to not have surgery . It's not the right time . Thanks to everyone who offered advice.

I'm supposed to have Lap Band surgery Mon July 20th but now, I'm not so sure I can go through with it. I have a lot of things going I'm trying to buy a new home and I'm stressed about it taking so long. Maybe this isn't right time for me. I need encouragement.

I called my Dr office today and spoke to the nurse I saw Fri. she claimed she answered all my questions on Fri. she was mean and judgmental . She told me maybe I should reconsider surgery , What nerve! Anyways I got my official approval letter from my insurance and I got my med clearance . :thumbdown::thumbup:Thanks to everyone who responded to my questions.

Thanks. I'll call Monday in the meanwhile I'm going to eat like normal.

I'm having a hard time dealing with lowering my carb intake for surgery. I 'm a diabetic and I feel lightheaded and can't concentrate. Can anyone help me?

I ordered what I needed from GNC and the unjury website. I'm having a hard time staying on the very low carb diet for the surgery I feel so lightheaded . Is there anything I do to feel better?

I had my appt with Kim today at Dr Hoff's office. She gave me the Protein / Supplements list . Where is a good place to buy this things? Are there any good places online too?

I have to see Dr Hoffman on Fri at 10:30 .Does anyone else have to go?

My in-laws are coming to visit after the surgery and like to eat out does anyone have suggestions on places to go?

I'm glad to hear the news I hope she stays well .

Vicki I'm sorry to hear about your daughter my prayers are with you.

What kind of protein shakes does anyone recommend?
