I am in the pre op faze- I just got a batch of labs done-

I knew my lipids would be high, but I was shocked to see that my Vitamin D level was at 15! It said range 30-50.

Just wondering what you think Doc will do, we are still waiting for one other lab that's not resulted yet.

Also, being new to this site- I see on the app that I have notifications, but I can't find them in the feed- (?) iPhone is what I have.

Hey First I'll say good luck you'll be fine!!

Now as for the Vitamins no worries all the doc will do is have you take what ever Vitamins you are missing or in levels until it is at an approval level . Once you have completed that part you'll be approved and moved on to the next step.

When I was in the beginning stages I was low in B12 and my doc made me take the Vitamin shot and than as I said I was pushed to the next step .

As for this site you'll find your notifications in were it's says ... " More"

Hey first off Good Luck!!

As for your Vitamins your doc is just going to make you take the Vitamins you are low in or missing and once your levels have been elevated to an approval level your doc will move you to the next step to proceed with your surgery no biggie.

When I was in the beginning stages I too was low in vitamins , I was low in B12 and as I said I was directed to take the missing vits and that was that .

As for your notifications I too have an Iphone you can find them where it says " More" at the bottom of your app

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
