I just got a call from my surgeon's office and they told me that the surgeon isn't available on the day that I was scheduled for surgery so they have to change it. So instead of surgery on March 5th and arrival time at the hospital at 5:45 am, I will now be going on March 7th and arrival time at 9:30 am. I am bummed about the change, but at least it's only two days difference.

Bummer! Well, 2 days just gives you more days to ready yourself. It stinks having to wait though. I have no patience!

Finally someone who gets it! Yes, its only two days, but I was set on that day. Now I have to re-set on the 7th. I can do it, but I am not a patient person either! LOL

I have 2 weeks 2 days to go and honestly not sure if I am ever going to make it. I am ready for a change and when I set my mind to it...I don't want things like the surgeon's schedules or anything to make me wait. lol

Oh boy, I understand. Sorry your date got postponed--it is frustrating when you have all your plans ready to go with time off work, babysitters, meals, etc. I'm glad it is only 2 days for you.

My surgery was supposed to be Feb 11th (yesterday). My surgeon postponed because pre-op lab work showed a high white blood count. Not significantly high, but he won't put an artificial apparatus in anyone with an abnormal WBC. So I'm finishing up my antibiotics today and will get rechecked again tomorrow. Who knows when it will happen. Next surgical date is the 25th. Ugh.

Bummer! And we were supposed to be surgery day twins! However, on the bright side you get to sleep in a little later on your surgery day. Just keep your eyes on the prize. We've all spent years as we are, you can do just 2 more days for sure.

      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.
