Surgery date changed! Doctor office messed up..Just venting!



Recommended Posts

So, I called the doctor office to get the details on pre-op testing for my surgery scheduled for April 25th. It was getting close and I had not heard back! I found out that they did not send the request over to the Hospital on time and could not get the 25th confirmed! I was already 4 days into my pre-op diet and almost adjusted to it. Now I have to stop and restart on the 25th. The new surgery date is May 9th! Everything happens for reason but still I think I have the right to be upset! :angry: GRRR!!

Oh man. That would be super disappointing. Best of luck to you on the 9th!

Yes, everything does happen for a reason, even when we don't understand why. The 9th will be here before you know it. I'm going on on 5/5 so we'll be going thru it together. Good Luck!

Thanks for your support! May 9th is not too far either. I go back on all Protein diet on Friday. Have been doing at 2-3 protien shakes anyway so shoudn't be that hard! How is your pre-op diet going, comeflywithme?

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
