kat77 63 Posted February 6, 2013 So how did it go? Are u good to go? Sorry I forgot to update here! They ended up letting me stay home and moving my surgery up....I have to be there at 7a.m. Magnesium citrate is disgusting and I already was having issues with only drinking shakes...there is nothing in there to clean out....blegh.....have a glass of Water near by. I am really nervous, but I am trusting in God. I won't be able to update till I get home though....no smart phone and this nexus is hooked up to my home FiOS so I will be off the grid till I get back. Hugs and prayers to everyone who goes in after me.....see you on the losers bench! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
