Do you live far from the Hospital. I'm only 30 mins ago so its not too bad!!
I live about 6 or so hours from my hospital, so I get to spend that night in a motel that's across the street from the surgery center. I'll spend one night in the hospital, and one more in the motel before heading home.

Wow! This is a growing group. Welcome Abbey, IndioGirl, lwesson and Dancing to the Lucky's. This is a great group.

Lynette, I am sorry to hear you are sick. I hope you feel better soon. That Z-pak works great. And I agree on the generic Mucinex. It is much cheaper and works great....{{hug}}

Marcy, I got tickled thinking of you trying to explain things to a 7 year old. I thought of the vibrator the first time I saw the name..:biggrin1:

Jackie, you are playing the waiting game with me. All of my papers have been submitted and the insurance is "reviewing it". good luck

Phyl, :clap2: congrats on the date!

cazulay, you are definitely moving fast through the process. Just goes to show how much insurance dictates healthcare...but I won't get on my soapbox now:confused:

Chimboree, glad everything went well. those arterial blood gases hurt like devil

Laurend, hang in there on the pre-op diet. it's only 2 weeks...of course, I can say that since my doc doesn't require one:) Don't ya just hate me:biggrin1:

I went to the pulmonologist yesterday and my pulmonary function test was good. However, I do have a sinus infection, which I suspected, and he put me on Amoxicillin 875 mg 2 x day for 20 days. Did you get that? 20 days. They are horse pills and I cannot have the surgery until I finish the 20 days...bummer. The earliest I would be able to have it will be July 10. I was hoping for the week of the 4th. Oh well.....still waiting for insurance approval.

did you notice I am a little upset about the 20 days of the HORSE PILL.

Rub it in, why don't you? (lol, just kidding)

That sucks. I have trouble swallowing anything more than 500 mg, and I have trouble with that, too, if it is round. I had a horrid headache (the type where you just want to curl up and cry) the night before last and tried to take an Advil liquigel. Somehow, it hit my throat wrong and I gagged while I was swallowing it. I managed to get it down, but it made me nauseous and I had to throw up about 3 minutes later. I don't do well at swallowing pills, especially if I am using Water. I HAVE to have something to drink with them to hide the taste or texture of the pill, and water just doesn't do it.

      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.
