I got there at 6 am and went back pretty quickly. The nurse was doing routine stuff like asking my medical history, when was my last period, when did I eat/drink last, etc. Took my bp and temp. I had a temp of 100.4 and an elevated heart rate. She asked was I in any pain and I told her that my throat was very, very sore. I also have pink eye. I disclosed this last night when someone from the hospital called and went over some questions. She didn't say anything so I thought it must not be a big deal, even though pink eye is highly contagious. The surgeon was called and he said that he couldn't operate with all of that going on, I'm supposed to see him April 1 and he will reschedule my surgery then. That means I have to start this f***ing liquid diet and bowel prep all over again.

I am so weak from the liquids and bowel prep and now I feel like my sore throat may mean I'm getting sinusistis, for about the 6th time since Thanksgiving. Right now, I feel so bad that I'm tempted to just say screw it, I have zero desire to live 2 weeks again in misery. I'd rather be fat at this point. I wish he would just tell me that as long as I don't gain back the 16 lbs I lost on the pre-op diet, then I won't have to go through that again. But I know that won't happen. Hopefully, this soured feeling I have will subside when I start feeling better.

Not a good day at all. I'm very depressed.

OMG that sucks! You poor thing...:biggrin:

That being said (and I do mean it, God that sucks!!), I'm glad he made you wait. There are too many risks associated with surgery being done on someone that is sick. Especially with a temp.

I know you don't want to do this all over again, but holding off is really for your own safety. You can make it through this!!! Please don't give up!!
