Well, every hospital and doctor is different, but it should go something like this: check in, pee test, go to room and strip down and put on gown, have iv line inserted and you relax on the bed until it is time. I got wheeled into the room and they had me slide over to the op table, asked me to lean my head back(for the breathing tube) and that was the last I remember. Unfortunately, I woke up to find that my surgery didn't take place as my liver was too large. I have been on the liquid diet since Oct 28th and I finally go back for my 2nd attempt next week the 16th.

You'll be fine and it'll be great. You'll see. As I always say, "let go and let god" and don't worry about it.
