This is Day 10 of the pre-op liquid diet. I'm really struggling. I know it will work out for the best, but I'm literally counting days until I can have baby food :eek:.
My RN daughter is so scared for me. But I keep telling her that she sees only the pathology, not the successes, and I plan to be one of the latter for sure. Twelve days till surgery and then she'll see I'm ok. Of course, she plans on going to the hosp. with me. My other 3 daughters feel just fine about it and every one of them is supportive.
Funny thing. Well, not ha-ha, just odd. My husband just had a double hernia operation on Thurs. and he's supposed to go to the dr. for follow-up the same day as my surgery. Gotta call and see how we can work that out. I definitely want him there with me, if at all possible.
:eek: Ok. So here it goes. I've jumped through all the hoops for the past 10 months and finally have a date and all approvals. Since I'm never one to do things by halves, I started the 2 wk liquid pre-diet 3 wks before, and I'm on day #5. Now I'm wondering if I'm supposed to be on full liquid or clear. But I have a couple of days to figure that out. However....I'm HUNGRY!!!
I'm looking for info about this. Of course, I can't find all the material they've given me.... Sigh.
