For me, my pre-op was looking at my overall health...doing blood work. My Vitamins and stuff like that. They also looked at my thyroid and cholesterol. I had an EKG and a chest X-ray. I'm with @defitvt though, they are looking to see if you cheated...that is funny!

I have my preop on Monday! Sounds like they take blood, urine, and talk through the procedure. Anyone know what they are testing for?

My surgery is scheduled for March 24th but I'm not at OCC though! :)

March 26 @ OCC. Would love to connect with anyone who has surgery around the same time.

So I have surgery in 6 days! I had my pre-op yesterday and they did blood testing to figure out what my blood type was and a urine test to make sure I am not pregnant. I figured since I am on my period this week that it would be a pretty straight answer, but I understand them wanting to be sure. Which let me tell you.. The universe is getting back at you for something if you go on your period the same time you are on a liquid diet. I seriously do not know how I am able to interact with people without losing it!!

I hear you Spicy06! I haven't had my period in a year (I'm 46) and it decided to visit me this past week, with surgery tomorrow. I've been doing a lot of hiding in my room in the evenings so I don't hurt anyone's feelings with my crankiness :D The rest of the day is a different matter - lol.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
