Thanks.

I’ve also got to have a month of liquids post op.

All packed and ready for surgery tomorrow. Really anxious and nervous. I’ve had a lot of surgery but this is the first truly elective procedure I’ve ever had.

I’m also preop (surgery on 28th Sept) and have followed this thread with interest. I have bipolar and anxiety disorder- both of which are well controlled with meds. To have (hopefully) the least impact on my med absorption my surgeon suggested a sleeve instead of a bypass. I really don’t want my bipolar exacerbated by having this surgery.

I’m interested in the responses you get for your question also. I have bipolar and take extended release meds for that. I’m having a sleeve done in Sept. I’m hoping that I don’t have too many issues with malabsorption.

Sept 28th is when I’m getting sleeved.

Hi! I’m a newbie here. My gastric sleeve is happening on Sept 28th. I’m in Australia and I’m equal parts nervous and excited. Wishing everyone a smooth pre-op run.
