  2. I'm four days post op. Doing pretty well, except for my left leg thigh area being numb. Just started yesterday. Anyone heard of this?

      I know what you mean...the night before was the worse...the excitment can be overwhelming... I took some tylenol pm to help me sleep... luckily I got to go to the hospital early so I didn't have to spend the day being anxious too... good luck!

      Surgery went great. No issues. I just have port pain now and as long as I take the pain meds I feel pretty good. Woo Hoo!!!

    Starting weaning off

    I was a diet coke from mcdonalds addict. I stopped cold turkey on day one of pre op. I haven't looked back. I just keep a drink handy... Something to sip on and I'm good to go.

    Starting my pre-op diet tomorrow

    I have four more days of pre-op diet and surgery on Friday, may 9th. My problem? I'm crabby. I have a dull headache. I used to drink a lot of diet pepsi, so maybe it's a caffeine headache. And I'm hungry.
  6. Does only liquid going in mean only liquid coming out?

    What's the story behind your profile name?

    Mine comes from when I was little. My name is Tina Marie. My brother couldn't say his M's very well, so it turned into Tinaree.
  8. I'm going to be self pay. $13000. Chicago. The clinic has a finance company that they work with if you can't pay in full. I will pay $1000 on pre-op day and the $12000 remaining on surgery day. All pre-op included and 12 months of follow ups and fills included. DayOne Health. My insurance won't cover any of it.
  9. I've read in various posts about people getting their pre-op diet in the mail. My doctor hasn't mentioned anything about a diet in the mail. What is this and where do I get it? Is it worth it?

    Pre-op diet in the mail?

    Thanks everyone. My doctor never mentioned the diet in the mail. He has provided me with lots of information on both the pre op and the post op diets. I'm looking forward to my surgery, and the support of everyone here.
