My doctors office faxed in my information last Wednesday afternoon and at 8:30am Thursday morning, I received the phone call that I was APPROVED for the Sleeve. I am beyond excited right now. I received a call from the surgeons office and I had to stop taking my Omeprazole for 2 weeks and have a bacteria test done on my stomach. My appt is scheduled for July 5th for the test and then I get to schedule for my surgery, I am hoping for July 23rd. My question for everyone that has already had the surgery, what do I need to take with me for my hospital stay?? Also, I would like to find out approximately how much money will be spent on protein powders.
