I think I have a date!

[countryrose 14]

I finished my pre op stuff today and called the surgeon's office to report in, and the gal asked if I wanted to schedule my pre op for her! I have to do a gallbladder ultrasound and an EKG and labs. She also gave me a tenitive surgery date of April 7!!

I was so excited at the beginning of this but now having a possible surgery date, I'm scared out of my mind! All the research and studying I've done has helped, but the "realness" has suddenly hit me. Anybody else go through this? Any words of encouragement besides to just chill and follow the plan?

Thanks in advance!

April 7th is my birthday, it's going to be a great day for everyone, including you and your surgery! LOL

I don't have a date yet, but I'm really trying to wait patiently! ha!

Congratulations! The nerves are normal I think.. hang in there!

Congrats! I'm feeling the exact same way. The feeling of just wanting to get it over with nerves.

April 7 will be here before you know it.

Congrats! I also have my surgery date for April 7th. Have you began your pre-op diet yet? Or was that not required of you?

It's set for April 7, I'm just unsure if he will make me do a liquid diet pre op. That's what i get to find out Monday. I seriously can't wait though.

I feel the same way. Started my liquid diet on the 23rd for my April 13 surgery date. Excited but also wondering what I've gotten myself in to!

My parents both did the bypass and look and feel great, we will be fine. The liquid diet isn't so bad and I'm down 16 already just from that
