  5. about the pre-op diet: the doctor told me i should only drink liquids one day before the surgery and thats it!! may be because of my age and the fact that i never drank alcohol in my life my liver was not enlarged so much but thats only what i think, i didn't get the chance to ask the doctor
  6. i didn't know about the multivitamins for life, i guess the doctor was going to prescribe another 6 months of it i also think the antibiotic is for a quick healthy recovery for the stomach and the wound
