Thanks![/quote'] Are you drinking too much artificial sweetener? Chewing too much gum? I had it the first day bad (but I also took a laxative in the morning) -- was better the 2nd day (only a little, once). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gamergirl 4,610 Posted August 5, 2013 I wished I had some travel wed mild mouthwash. The combo of ketosis and surgery left me with something less than a fresh mouth And I promise you, I do actually know how to spell. Combo of autocorrect on iPad, and one day post op not a good one 1 ShrinkyDinkMe101 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kennedy 100 Posted August 5, 2013 PattGee, I am scheduled for surgery Thursday. Start my liquid pre op tomorrow. My dr told me to take milk of mag too. I thought he said tomorrow night, which is 2 days before surgery. How close to surgery do you have to take it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I thought he said tomorrow night, which is 2 days before surgery. How close to surgery do you have to take it? I'd call them to verify it.....Mine told me to take it this afternoon (the day before surgery). yamgirl.....the hospital should call you today to confirm the time.....wish I had no m.o.m. for me, too LOL Wishing you all well....I'll probably be surfing again at 2 a.m. when I can't sleep because I'm too excited/anxious for tomorrow!
