Question for the ppl going to IU North... Do any of you know if we have a pre-op liquid diet? I think its just ms jackson and I, and we don't know, but I figured I'd ask just in case.

I am going to IU North. As far as the facility, they have no liquid diet, but my surgeon will put me on one prior to surgery but I think it is for 2-3 days. I meet with him on Oct 2 and surgery is Oct 9.

Had my lap roux Sept 27 at St Vincent in Carmel with Dr Huse. Went home on the 29th. Doing good have not had any pain meds since the 28th eating and drinking with no issues. Passed gas on the 28th,bm today. Walk, walk, walk is my advice.

Had RNY on August 15th with Dr Evanson at St. Vincent, Carmel. Have lost 30 lbs so far!

We share a surgeon :) but I'm pre-op. I have "heard" many ppl complain of left side pain post-op. A good online friend had her surgery and the pain persisted for 4-5 week b4 it subsided. I believe its pretty normal. Prayers it goes away soon for ya! Congrats on making it to the bench.
