The pre-op diet sounds easy until we actually have to do it. Some people want to start it early & run full steam ahead but too quickly run out of gas. This is hard. You're in one of the hardest phases of this whole thing. Know that every one of us who've made it to the other side has gone through exactly the same thing. Dig deep. Deeper than that. Find that source of inspiration. Good luck!

Good luck! Congratulations! See you over on the POST-Surgery forum!

Congratulations! Good for you!

Did anyone else experience this? Yes! MANY of us did! You are not alone. Good luck! See you over on the POST-Operation forum.

Most likely you'll get a surgery date after your cardiologist appointment & after your insurance company approves everything. There are so many moving parts to this process, it's no wonder you're confused! I know I was!
If you have a specific question like this, ask your surgical team. We'll be able to sympathize but they'll be able to truly answer your question. Good luck!

I first joined this community to get support. Now, three years past surgery, I'm here to offer support to both the PRE & POST surgery forums. We see a lot of the same questions being asked: "HELP!" or "Is this normal?!" or "How do I do this?!" I just hope the people getting support stick around long enough to become veterans & offer support too!

It was about three days for me. I started sleeping on my side with a pillow for support. After a few days, I noticed I was pushing the pillow away during sleep until I was on my stomach. Good luck!
