Have you started any pre op program ? I start liquid sept 25 and really haven't done anything else ... I need to start walking

I go monday for pre op testing to get my chest X-ray and blood work and EKG I dunno after that

Hi all, honourary member here! Less than 24 hours until I am in the hospital. Hope those on liquid diets are coping well. Today is just clear fluids, not going to be fun but at least get a glimpse of what post op will be like, diet wise!

The count down continues ...

Hey my date has been moved up to Oct 22nd instead of Oct 29th...I'LL TAKE IT!!!

I'm using dr Walter sartor. What about you?

I'm using Dr. George Merriman.

Hello October sleevers , it is with great sadness that I have to take my name off the list.... due to health issues my general doctor doesn't advise me to go forward , it seems that I have to many underlying health issues and it would make it unsafe to go under anesthesia. Please know that I will keep all of you in my heart , my thoughts and mostly in my prayers. I wish you all nothing but success on your journey. ((( hugs)))

I so hate to hear this. I hope you'll find some resolution to the underlying health issues so that you can join us on the losers' bench. Take care of yourself & keep us in the loop on your NSVs.
