I am booked in to get my sleeve done on the 1st July 2016 and my Dr wants to have a gastroscopy a month out from surgery. Is this a normal practice ?

Also is there any good recipe websites for Biatric patients ?

@@kmw1970 - Welcome and it's exciting to hear that your surgery is right around the corner!!!

I'm not sure if Gastroscopy is common practice, but I can tell you that my surgeon did not require it to be done prior to my surgery. You might ask your surgeon why they are requiring this? Perhaps it's just an extra precaution, or perhaps this particular surgeon does this with his/her patients, or perhaps your insurance requires it? Not sure....but I'm sure they'll let you know if you ask.

Best of luck to you...keep us in the loop with how you're doing!
