Well I spent the day getting all the pre surgery testing. Everything my Doc wanted done. Next step is to get clearance from the Doctors my surgeon has requested. My two week mark was tuesday but for some reason my pre opt diet starts tomorrow. I spent emails and was told everything starts tomorrow. I worry that someone may of messed up. I sure hope this doesn't delay my surgery which is due to happen on May 3rd. Has anyone else done a pre opt diet that was less than two weeks? I actually ate a little something this morning and have fasted the rest of the day. Hard to believe that I am less than two weeks away. After spending the morning at the Hospital it really feels like the day will actually happen. Have a meeting with the surgeon tomorrow 8am. Fingers crossed it all goes smooth.

I don't have a pre-op diet. Trust what they tell you.

Thanks I will.

My preop diet is 10 days. I'm shocked that some doctors dont require any, they need your liver to shrink for safety. I think even if surgeon said I didnt need to, Id do liquid for a few days prior

My surgery is on 4/29; I start a clear liquid diet on the 27th, but until then I'm on a 1500 calorie diet.

I haven't begun my pre-op diet but was given information on it. It will last for two weeks. Give them a ring and check in.
