I'm there with you! March 25 is right around the corner and I'm so excited! I am nervous about it but I think that is normal. I'm getting through this preop diet as well as I can. No cheating but man it has been tough. I'm glad to be finding some people that are having surgery the same day I am. We need to keep up with each other!

I'm 3/25 and really getting anxious. I started my pre diet on this past Wed and scheduled for pre op on this coming Wed and EDG on Friday. My surgeon requires and EGD anytime he's doing a sleeve. I was told I will have blood drawn, EKG and Swallow test. Not really sure what the swallow test is all about. When is your pre op?

My pre-op testing is done. I did all of it this past Wednesday. I had an EGD bright and early then went for my physical exam, chest x-ray, EKG and labs. I'm not sure what the swallow test is either. I started my pre-op diet last Tuesday. My surgeon requires an EGD any time he does a sleeve too. My husband said the whole thing couldn't have taken more than 15 minutes. I don't remember a thing, ha ha ha!

It's called a manometry test. I looked it up and they run I tube down your nose into your throat! I can't wait! Ugh! I'm not too sure what else they gonna do. Guess ill find out on Tues :-)

How are you guys doing on the pre op diet? I'm struggling a little bit an d I'm starting to worry.

I'm March 25th as well! Not too nervous, just anxious to have it over with and get on the path to wellness! I assume I start pre-op drinking tomorrow, as that's when I meet with the doctor for the last time before Monday. I anticipate I will be starving, but I just keep telling myself how it will all be worth it in the end!
