LauriTX75 75 Posted May 12, 2015 I am in a situation at work that I need to be scheduled a certain day. At first it was June 3. Then some other staff made changes and now I need it to be June 1 or I will have to wait until July. I'm hurrying to get everything done so it can be submitted to insurance. But I am getting nervous. Ugh! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

busymom_of_3 31 Posted May 13, 2015 New to this forum, just got a surgery date of 6/1. Been on a pre op of 2 shakes and a no fat, no carb meal since beginning of May. Can't wait for this surgery, tired of being hungry! Nothing left to do but wait. I've been so tired, hard to bring myself to excersise. Has anyone else dealt with 8 weeks pre-op? My doctor does this with every patient. How do I get energy? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

merry1126 42 Posted May 14, 2015 Met with the surgeon on Tuesday and he told I've been approved. Just need a clearance from PCP and a new cardiac clearance. Hopefully everything stays on track to still have surgery in June. He also warned that I can't gain any weight, or he won't do the surgery. So I decided to start the pre-op diet. Best of luck.
