It will go by faster than you think. Good luck.

As we all have our surgeries, let's keep updated on how we feel, how we are progressing. I think it would help all of us.

Thanks for all the well wishers! Having the insurance company which in the past has given decisions in 2 weeks take almost a month was not in my plans.

The same thing happened to me. When I didn't hear back I called for an update at 2 weeks and was told it could take up to a month to get approval. I thought I would be denied for sure. I was bracing myself for an appeal. Then a week later I got the approval in the mail from the insurance and the surgeon had not even been notified yet. Eeeeekk!

I was relieved, and I am so happy for you. Things just feel so different when you have a date.

Scheduled for September 10th, Had my pre op appointment with the surgeon today to go over the plan for the day of surgery and what to expect. WHOA.. It was a lot of information to consume and added some thick anxiety.

Another one for September 8th here. Did all my lab work yesterday and hopefully I'm all set with my hematologist too. Start my liquid diet on Thursday. My surgeon only requires a 5 day full liquid diet.

I had my pre op assessment yesterday (uk). I asked about the pre op diet and was told that my surgeon in particular doesn't request his patients to go on a diet however if I was under the care of 1 of the other 2 surgeons they would have liked me to go in a 2 week milk diet!! My surgery is next Friday! conflicting information... Maybe if should just do a strict liquid diet.. guess it can't hurt. Has anyone else been told they don't need to be on a pre op diet??

Jay05 My surgeon told me that the liquid diet prior to your surgery helps the healing. It is less painful and heals faster. It wouldn't hurt right.

My surgery date is set for September 14 in California.
