Oh good, thanks Nate!

Thanks elizabeth! that makes me feel little better!!

no i havent.

Are you talking about pre op testing/ pre admission testing?? if so, i went in did a breathing test to insure i can be put under ok, then i went and had an ekg dont and blood work and answered some questions with the nurses, meet with the PA for my surgeon and answered some of her questions, then I met with my dr who has been my pcp since feb also the dr who clears u for surgery. after that i sat through two classes one was what its going to be like the day i come to the hospital and the stay there, next class was a dietitian class on how ill be eating following surgery. lots of information!!! and they took my $ that I have to pay for surgery which was my out of pocket for insurance.

I think those are adorable, they have one thats a moose ive been trying to get my bf to get me hehe

Yes, have to make sure i keep up my liquids so i dont get dehydrated. its 24hrs of clear liquids that day as well. but this is all i have to do no pre op diet.

Nope i read it over and over 3 bottles!! it was freaking, thank god for the toilet in downstairs and two upstairs lol

yes not looking forward to it im sure it will be miserable since ive never done it before!

So todays the day! I go in for my 8 hr day of testing and classes for surgery, they are going to do an EKG and some blood work. Then I will meet with the dietitan and the doctor. Ill be getting all my information for post op and get to try some different samples I hear! Im pretty excited, but not looking forward to getting up in 2 mins when Im usually going to bed, because I work nights oye! My whole day is gonna be flipped around, but for the best reason!

No fun! I got my instructions today didnt seem to bad, 3 bottles of Mag citratge, 1 1/2 bottle at 10am and the other 1 1/2 at 1pm with 24 hrs of clear liquids that day! Not looking forward to living in the bathroom all day but glad Im starting my time off work this day!

So I tried the unjury chocolate Splendora I think its called (they have two a chocolate and this one) yesterday with 8oz of 1% fat free milk and used the imulssion(sp?) Mixer/blender to mix it up and I have to say I was very surprised at how good it really was, it tastes just like a low fat chocolate milk and didnt have a bad smell or a weird taste or after taste either! Very happy with the chocolate! [ATTACH]5732[/ATTACH]
