I've seen topics where members having surgery in the same month have kinda banded together to offer support and encouragement to one another. I think this is a wonderful idea, and I'd like to see if there's anyone having surgery in March that would like to support one another.

I have a tentative date for the second or third week in March. I have UHC through Georgia Pacific and they use BRS for approvals. I don't expect any delays, nor does my surgeon's office, so she saved me a spot, so to speak, lol.

Tonight I have my psyc eval, and Monday is my information class, I have two more visits, 2/5 and 3/5 of my six month supervised diet, and on March 5th when I leave my PCP's office, I'll take my worksheet to the surgeon and we'll submit to insurance. That's where I'm at!

I'd love to talk with others that are looking at the same time frame as me!!

My surgery is in the morning and i am a nervous wreck and can't sleep. Boy was that bowel prep aweful

Oh God! Ugh I was hoping the bowel prep wasn't going to be so bad...did u have to do magnesium citrate? How many bottles?

I had to do 2 bottles it was called super bowel prep. It was worse than i thought it would be. Maybe ask for the pills? A coworker of mine said he had the pills and they weren't bad.

My dr told me magnesium citrate...2 bottles for me I tried to whine my way out of it at my pre op appointment but it didn't fly...lol he did say that if I follow the diet for the 2 weeks well and keep hydrated, it won't be so bad...

I started on page one of this thread, and I was surprised how many people had fallen off this list here and there. I'm so sorry. I don't know how that's happened, but I've tried my best to include EVERYONE, even those who don't have a date yet. So if you don't see your name let me know, if you have a date change, I'll change it on the list. No problem!
