Anyone else have surgery in July ?

Mine is 7/7 would love to keep up with people who are having there’s around the same time.

I start my preop diet 6/23
2-3 shakes a day and 1 sensible meal

Also anyone’s doctor ask them to stop taking their multivitamin before surgery ?

I was 13th july also , I’m exactly the same I can not get enough fluids down

5 days post op. My surgeon told me to start protein shakes yesterday. Only managed to drink one. Still no BMs. Been doing milk of magnesia but nothing. Sugar free pudding and jello are painful but I do not have an issue with drinking fluids. I was 144 at the hospital on the day of surgery. Am 139 today.

mines July 23rd! already getting anxious!

Mine is the same day. I’m getting pretty nervous too

Surgery is the 20th for me! i’m so nervous now; i’m over liquids ?

Surgery date 7/13. Officially 5 days post op. Not in pain but some soreness depending on how I move. No BM either. I feel nauseous immediately when I drink or eat something but it soon passes. Not getting in enough Water or Protein. This really sucks. Just ready to get past this phase.

Mine was July 8 ?

Awesome! I didn't think anyone was going to have the same day as me since it is a Friday! I'm hoping for smooth sailings for both of us! I'm going to listen to music before i go in and hope it calms me down haha or maybe they will drug me up early lol

are you able to basically do your normal route at this point? I have some scheduled for 3 weeks out and i'm worried i'll be to tired and run down to do it.

Yes! May it be smooth sailing for us both. I’m hoping I don’t get stuck staying at the hospital. I was told you just stay the one day ?‍♀️ I’m honestly not looking forward to the first 2 weeks.

Just had my surgery 7/15. Day 4 and surprisingly doing well. Fingers are crossed it stays this way.
