Final surgeon appointment pre-op



Recommended Posts

Hiya!

I have my final appointment pre-surgery tomorrow and I'm trying to make sure I have all my questions written down so I don't forget to ask him. Anyone have anything they can possibly think of that I should ask - just want to make sure I don't leave anything out that I may not be thinking of at this moment :-)

I'm getting stressed just trying to figure out which supplements/vitamins to choose lol! I made me a binder with all of my info. Which is very informative. And I have a fantastic weight loss buddy! Welcome ????

I have a list of questions for my doctor.

Should I wear a medical alert Bracelet? )God forbid if something happens were they would have to place s tube down to help breathe.)

What size will my sleeve be?

Do you staple and stitch?

Will I be provided a binder or should I purchase one to wear after surgery?

Not sure this these help you but that's my list.

Good luck and keep us posted. ????

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
