Anyone in Mexico November 2-6 for surgery with Dr E Ortiz

[curvycurlyfit 120]

I most likely will have an early to mid November date. I have an EGD on Oct 15th and I need to have my psych eval then I'm good to go.

Hi everyone! I am having my surgery on 11/8 down in Mexico with Dr. Fernando Garcia.< /p>

[Erikanbmws 2]

My date is 11/18......and I can't wait!!! Except for my pre-op diet (YUCK!) I start my pre-op on 11/4. My doctor requires the following food:

3 Protein shakes

1 high protein/low carb meal (lean cuisine)

1 cup fresh vegies

Oh and lots and lots of Water.

I am completely off caffeine and I quit smoking a month ago!! I am so ready for my new life

It's interesting to read things that different Dr's allow and for how long with the pre-op. Mine is 4 shakes a day, that's it. No food whatsoever and lots of Water. 64oz to be exact. It's supposed to be for exactly 3 weeks prior, but I'm doing a whole month. I'm 6 days in right now.

I was just given my surgery date...November 12th. I wasn't sure if I wanted to scream with delight or cry with fear. All kinds of emotion now that a date has been givin...seems "real" now!

I am officially on the books for 11/4! I have my pre-op visit on 10/27. I need to be down 18lbs by then so I'm basically doing a liquid diet (since Monday). I'm having 3 shakes, a Cocotein and then a can of tuna with Melba crackers for dinner. Plus getting in my 30 minutes of walking.

I got insurance approval today so that felt like a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. This actually feels real now and I cannot wait!

I can also have SF popcicles, sugar free Jello, caffiene free coffee or teas, ect. I have my chest X-rays, labs, and EKG and post op class on Nov 3rd. Good luck everyone!!!

My surgery was originally scheduled for Nov 3rd, my doc office called on this past Tuesday to reschedule. My surgery is now set for October 27th. YIKES!! My mom had to reschedule her flights in to be with me, my husband had to get his time off rescheduled and I had to make sure my work schedule was good to go. Now that that is all set I think I can handle this change. =)
