When I quit my job the other day I emailed the people doing my surgery and asked if they had any earlier dates I could take now I would be home sooner . I got an email back yesterday and it looks like I'm having surgery February 2nd!

Ground Hog Day!!!!

Hope you don't hear Sonny & Cher in the background singing "I got you babe"...before you go into surgery.

It will be here before you know it> good luck

surgery moved up!

@@perforce

when was your initial scheduled date??

that's great having surgery done earlier than expected

usually goes the other way around

since surgery is earlier than planned

maybe you could brush up on more info

you can never learn toooo much

knowledge is power!!!

maybe practice not drinking for 45-60 minutes after you eat

don't drink through a meal!! (people have been shot for less)

drink 64 oz of Water a day

stop drinking soda

many other rules too hopefully provided by your NUT

if you don't want to do any of the above

then the helllll with you

watch out for those grand-hogs

if you see them, does that mean you have 6 more month of success??? LOL

take care bud

Groundhog day is when Americans check if winter is going to be longer right? Or more importantly, an awesome movie with Bill Murray.

I have no NUT. Or pre op diet save reducing a few medicines and avoiding a few foods that naturally thin the blood. I'm self pay in Europe so the process is a little different. I already drink enough Water and I stopped drinking soda years ago when I was about 12, so neither of those is a worry. Not drinking through a meal is really going to suck for me, but I'm back home for the month before surgery so I think I'll start practicing then.

I was initially meant for July 5th, but with me going back to the UK 6 months early I'm now free to have it done whenever they have an opening.
