So my surgery is this coming Wednesday and I'm super excited but also feeling stressed and freaking out. I had planned to do a 2 week pre op diet because I wanted to make sure no complications or anything because My weight right now 236 lbs and my BMI is 45 and higher but because I was waiting to hear from the Drs office on wether I got approved or not I didn't know how long it was going to take so I called a few days ago and talked to the receptionist she said it won't be for a few weeks for them to call me with an appointment date so I had planned to start my 2 weeks. But then a day or so later I received a call from them saying that I got approved and to make an appointment so she said they can get me in Wednesday and I got super excited and said YES! With no hesitation so now that it's set in stone I only have about 3 days left and I'm worried that my liver hasn't shrank and I'm stressed and have anxiety because I don't want my dr to say that he can't do the surgery!! Can someone help me please

@@essenav Does your Dr require one? Mine doesn't - only clear liquids day before. I'm at a 52 BMI so don't panic. Many Drs don't require a preop diet. You can stay on liquids now and I'm sure you'll be fine. Good luck.

No he doesn't I just thought it would help.. And thank you that does help me because I was freaking out. Thank you
