During lunch time today, I got a call from the patient coordinator/patient navigator at my surgeons office saying I was approved for surgery! My surgery is scheduled to take place on February 22nd, 2018 at 7:30 am and I have to be at the hospital at 5:30 am. I don't start the liquid diet until a week before the surgery. However, I have to eat smaller, healthier meals for two weeks before I start the actual liquid diet. I started the eating the smaller, healthier meals on February 1st; so, I have another week of eating the smaller, healthier meals before I start the actual liquid diet.

They did the opposite for me. They scheduled me first and then I had to wait to be approved.

Me, too! I thought I was the only one! I was scheduled in November. I think this may be a sign of a well=prepared office.
