My 6 month diet is just about up. It ends in December and that is the month they are aiming for me to have my surgery in.
Because I am on this 6 month diet that means that I will not have a 2 weel diet to go on before surgery. The 6 months that I am on right now, will get my liver down to the size they need it to be.
I cannot wait!!!!!! :confused:

I am going through my six month diet right now. I will be having my surgery in December. I do not have a date as of yet, but that is fine. At least I have a month to look forward to.
The pre-Op diet says to stay away from breads etc.. but it has been stressed that I am to stay under 40 grams of carbs a day. So, I think I will call the Dr. today and ask them if I can continue to have the bread etc.... as long as I keep track of the carbs and make sure that are always under 40 grams a day.
In the mean time, I am guessing at some point while on the diet, I will have my upper Endoscopy done and my blood work done. I am glad those are the only two things left for me to do, besides see my Dr. one last final time for the surgery date etc..
God Bless,

I have just two more things to do before approval will be sent in.
On the 21st I have my Endoscopy and on the 22nd I have my health & Physical appointment with Dr Bell.
After these two are done then they will send everything out to medicaid for approval.
They said that I am looking at having my surgery next month but we do not have a date nailed down as of just yet.
