Steelerfan1115 7 Posted January 8, 2013 I am on day 4 out of 5 for liquid diet. I get banned on the 10th. However, I called because the liquid diet is not settling with me right and asked if I could take tums. Now they may cancel my surgery. My surgeon thinks I am sick. This is not the case. I should have never called. I am freaking out right now. Everything that could have gone wrong has for my surgery. I had a hernia and it is a medium one so that is a concern then they thought I had a decificany which could have caused Addison's disease. I don't have it. I will have started the process in march. It has almost been a year. Also, if you haven't been put on a liquid diet and are doing it I would suggest adding maybe pudding. It will help the stomach.

I hope it turns out to be nothing. I know docs want to err on the side of caution, but waiting over a year must make you feel desperate to get something done.

babykins529 189 Posted January 9, 2013 I don't have a date yet. Waiting on approval but my surgeon wanted me to start my diet now so that by the time I get my approval, I'll be ready to go. End of January at the earliest, first week of February at the lastest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
babykins529 189 Posted January 9, 2013 So far so good. I'm sure it will get easier. The diet is very close to the Medifast diet I was on last year so I know what to expect and how to manage it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
