Thanks everyone for the input. When I had my meeting with the surgeon, I asked him is there anything that i needed to do before surgery. And very down to earth and frank he told me there is but it doesn't look like i'd be conforming to his directions...he is probably right. So I guess he will just have to move my big liver aside.lol I watched the procedure on YouTube performed by Dr. Hadar Spivak and he was dealing with a big liver but said it wasn't the worst he's seen. So 4 days i will be eating preop diet and hope it helps. so excited and still so nervous!!
