A anyone else having surgery in April?

EEEEEK!!! countdown begins this is my last week of food freedom YIKES!! im doing protein shakes next week and i work 12 hr nights so i'll do like a small salad or something. what do people normally do the week of surgery? my date is april 25th.

if anyone has any suggestions on diets, what to bring and other helpful info i'd gladly appreciate it. email me: tmonagan@gmail.com

1 week from today!! So excited! I started my Pre-Op diet with a cold and no appetite ( blessing in disguise) I feel lucky that it hasn't been as bad as I thought. I feel like I'm doing it wrong. Shakes and salad and protein is what they told me... Hmm. I think the straight liquids may be the real test!! Wish me luck!

Thank you PhatKat - I'll be thinking of you as well and saying prayers for you.

We'll do great. Just have to walk, walk, walk.

Leaving the the house now on our way to McCarran.....here come the nerves.

So I'm 28 and my big day is the 15th with Dr. E Ortiz as my surgeon! Tomorrow I start my liquids, and I lost 11 lbs on my 2 week pre op? I'm so excited I'm all pack and ready to go!

I am just waiting for my pick up in San Diego this morning...ready to have my surgery today!

I'm at the hospital Mi Doctors now. I've had all my preop and everything was great. I'm just waiting my turn. So far everything has been awesome. Praying God will watch over the surgeon team and help me get to be the healthy person I long to be! Talk to y'all soon!

Will pray for you today and it will be over soon...

And on to the new healthier you

All good thoughts and positive energy coming your way. It would be great to hear how you are doing and how was your experience with the revision surgery. Take care until then.

Prayers and good Energy to you all awaiting Surgery! I will be in your shoes on Monday!

I'm having surgery on April 17 with Dr. Garcia in Tijuana. I met another girl online who's actually decided to go with him on the same day so we will be doing it "together" which is nice. Anyone else near the 17th in Tijuana?

I am booked with Dr Kelly on the 17th . It's coming up fast!

Good luck to all of you ladies!!

I just returned home from my surgery with Dr.Garcia and Ready 4 a Change and I must say i was VERY WELL TAKEN CARE OF!!!! I will write a review and everything when I get a chance! One word of advice; even if u feel like u are %100 when u check back in to the hotel, TAKE YOUR PAIN MEDS!!! I thought I was ok without them because I was feeling great...until the pain meds from the hospital wore off. OMG!! I was crippled over, couldn't sleep, couldn't walk upright, etc. TAKE YOUR PAIN MEDS!!!!

Okay guys. I had revision band to leave yesterday. Every thing this far has been amazing! I haven't had a lot pain except by the drain site. From the drivers to Dr Lopez has been all I expected. They all are very nice and speak great English for the most part. I go for the leak test in a little while. Can not wait to get some apple juice! Lol
