Tomorrow is the BIG DAY!

I am scheduled for surgery tomorrow at 9:45am, have to be there at 7:45. I have been on clear liquids all day and had to do the Magnesium Citrate (bowel prep). Clear liquids not too bad, but that Magnesium Citrate, YUCK!!!:wink2: Anyway, the nerves are beginning to kick in. I have read the posts of others that have already been banded this month and it helps. It's just the not knowing thing I guess that is so scary. Anyway, any last minute advice from anyone?

Thanks!

I'm not being banded until the 23rd but from what I read make sure to relax, don't psych yourself out the night before......also afterwards when you wake up it is normal to be like "what have I done" but after a while that will go away....I felt the same way when I started grad school I was like what the hell? But now I'm glad I did and time has passed quickly....I know it's not the same but it's the closest experience I have so far! I'm sure by the end of the night you will have a lot of advice on here.....congrats to you and I can't wait to read you check in in the next few days!!

Im going to be banded tomorrow at 10:15 i have to be at the hospital at 8:15. I did not have to do a bowel prep though. Sounds a little nasty. I am so excited and nervous but more excited.

Good luck to all you having surgery tomorrow!

Can't wait to hear your stories!

It will be over before you know it!
