Hello all! This is my first time posting here on the sleeve forums. I started this whole process on January 8th, and after 4 months of evaluations, tests and screenings, dietician visits and a sponsored diet and exercise program, I have a surgery date set for May 19th and got approved within 24 hours of my request for precertification from Cigna! I am so happy that everything went smoothly and can't wait. Now that it's so close and real, I am very nervous however! I've never stayed in the hospital overnight or had any surgery so I have no idea what to expect. I start my pre op diet in 2 days and have my pre op visit on Wednesday!
any and all advice on what to do to prepare in the next 2 weeks would be greatly appreciated! Thanks so much
