Well I am back home. The surgeon didn't feel comfortable doing the surgery today because my blood sugar was high. I know he is being cautious and a good doctor but I sure am disappointed. It is rescheduled for Dec.5 and I am supposed to somehow get my blood sugars down. So another round of reg diet then two weeks pre op diet and a lot more insulin. Trying to tell myself things happen for a reason and God is in control. At least I got a valium out of the deal and and IV in and out . And a mega dose of tylenol IV. even had my legs pumped for a while. We will just call this a practice run

So sorry! Doctors know what's best even though you were mentally ready to go. It will happen and we are here too to help. Hugs!

Sorry to hear! Best not to take any chances!

So sorry to hear that. If you don't mi d me asking how high were your sugars? I am scheduled for tomorrow and am also diabetic.

It was 275 today and my ai c last wednesday was 9 so it was a combination of both. I told them I hadn't taken any insulin since monday because of being on clear liquids yesterday, but he just felt like healing or having a leak could be a big problem with the numbers that high for a while. SO I have a month to get them under better control. Which is sooo sooo hard. My sugar can go up on Air.

but this is the perfect time to say "I SHAVED MY LEGS FOR THIS" lol

I'm sorry that surgery didn't happen. But dec 5 th will be around the corner. Then you will be sitting in the bench with me whoop whoop. Dr just being cautious that means he's a good doctor and really cares about his patient s he has
