Recommended Posts

How much more miserable can I get? I'm on Clear Liquids only till surgery, I have nasty yeast infection I'm trying to heal with monistat and my period is due to start the day of my surgery

Any advice, this won't hinder my surgery date will it?

Thanks

Yeast infections are a real pain. I used to get them all the time. Can your doctor call a script in for you to get some dyflucan? it's a pill and is way better than those creams and suppositories.

Don' t worry if you have your period on/near your surgery date. It happens all the time and I have never heard of anyone's surgery being postponed because of it.

They won't cancel your surgery because of it. I have read many posts where people had their "friend" visit on surgery day. I hope you can get the infection cleared up quickly for your big day. They do have one day treatments now, so I would seek that out! As far as your monthly friend, hopefully the surgery will be so stressful to your body that it will hold off. That is what happened with me. Good luck and hang in there. You will do great! Don't worry!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
