Tomorrow is the day

[doingit4me 9]

Just waiting to hear what time surgery will be tomorrow. Eeeeeek! Bundle of nerves, trying to get things done around the house. Questioning if this is what I should be doing... I know it is the right thing, but last minute doubts are creeping in my head. Only Clear Liquids today, that is fine, I don't think I could keep anything else down.

Did you find out the time of your surgery yet? My surgery isn't until June 21st, but since I'm the first case of the day I already know that my surgery is @7:30 am. I can't imagine having to wait until the day before to find out your time. Everything will be fine, it's normal to have last minute jitters before surgery. I'm sure you are making the right decision. Good luck tomorrow!

10 am tomorrow. Took my first dose of magnesium citrate 2 hours ago.... Nothing yet.

Curious how you make out with that stuff. I was told to drink one bottle, wait, and stake out a bathroom. :-)

You said you took your 'first dose'? How much did they ask you to drink?

[doingit4me 9]

I had to drink half a bottle at 3pm, then the other half at 7.

What is the magnesium citrate for and why did they ask u to stay in the bathroom? I hope to have surgery next month and this is the first I'm hearing about this.

Its called a bowel prep where you drink this stuff that cleans you out so they say stay near a bathroom. My surgery is Monday and I got a prescription from my surgeon. I have to drink mine Sunday morning between 8am and 12pm and I can only have Clear liquids.

In the end, bowel prep wasn't that bad. Maybe because I have been eating mostly liquids for 2 weeks. Some flush able wipes were the best idea, toilet paper hurt.

3.5 hours till I check in!
