I am suppose to be banded Monday but I woke up this morning with a little bit of a sore throat. I am a little nervous about calling the Surgeon because he might want to reschedule the surgery. I feel fine I Think it might just be my Sinuses Draining a little. I don’t Know what to do!

I say give it two days. Lots of fluids and rest. See how you feel on Saturday night/Sunday morning.

I am crossing my fingers for you that it's just a temporary itchy throat.

Best wishes!

I just talked to the nurse, she called to tell me what time to be ther monday. She said as long as I am not running a Fever than everything is fine for monday. Also she said that I can take anything over the counter for my cold.

I had the same thing happen to me. I'm due to be banded on Wed the 22nd. This past Thursday, I started having a sore throat and stuffed up head. I got soooo nervous, I didn't know what to do. I've waited too long to have my surgery cancelled just days before due to a silly little allergy/sinus issue! So, I crossed my fingers and called the nurse at the surgeon's office. She told me to take some Zirtec over the weekend and I'd be fine for surgery on Wednesday.

Good Luck on Monday!

Go get an Odowalla C Monster drink. It has always workd for me when I am feeling an illness coming on. It will nip it in the bud. It can't hurt right!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
