scarbedazzles 74 Posted July 18, 2013 If everything goes well....my date is set for 8/21 with Dr. Rod in MX. My coordinator has been wonderful. (JoAnne) I am super scared as I've never undergone general anesthesia in my life! I hope I don't react badly to it. I'm going to have to go over my pre and post op diet instructions again as I believe it wasn't a "liquid" diet as much as a low carb, liver shrinking type....maybe I missed something? hmmmm... now i'm worried Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pangur 19 Posted July 18, 2013 I will be sometime in August and I am very excited about the procedure and what it means for my future but nervous about the surgery going well. Is anyone else a scaredy cat like me about the surgery? I am consumed with fear about it. Yikes!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scarbedazzles 74 Posted July 18, 2013 I called today to get the ball rolling on my complication insurance, since I will be having surgery out of the country and my health insurance excludes WLS. Not scared yet, just excited. However, what will happen is that I will be TERRIFIED on surgery day!!! What insurance are you looking at? I knew this was possible but had no Idea where to start! You can message me the info if you'd like...thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xsammy 27 Posted July 18, 2013 I just got my date today--August 7th!! I just have to do 2 weeks at 1200 calories, then the last 48 hrs will be liquid only--I can handle that. I'm down about 40 lbs over the 5 months leading up to this....ready to really start making progress, I want to drop another 140. Which sounds like a crazy high amount, but I know it's possible! 1 ShrinkyDinkMe101 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
