Lemm61 206 Posted May 26, 2016 (edited) Anesthesia pre op now done too. He reviewed my medical history and told me which meds to take the Morning of surgery. Interestingly enough, he said to stop all Vitamins and supplements as of today. The only supplement I take is an occasional melatonin. Home now with my feet up and a cup of chicken Bone Broth, rereading through all the handouts I received today. Edited May 26, 2016 by Lemm61 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dani302011 6 Posted May 27, 2016 Hi All! I am scheduled for June 27 bypass. I am nervous and excited all in one. What are you all doing to prepare? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dani302011 6 Posted May 27, 2016 Thanks for the info. After I was approved last week they scheduled me for 3 pre-op appointments. One per week leading up to surgery as follows: 6/7: pre-op testing at the hospital (whatever that is) 6/13: pre-op class with the nurs 6/21: meet again with surgeon 6/27: surgery My surgery day is the same as you. 6/27. 6/7: A group counseling session 6/9: Pre/op day. Meeting with the surgeon again, NUT to review pre/post op diet and bone density scan 6/13: start two week high Protein liquid diet. I believe I am allowed 4 oz of real Protein, like chicken, yogurt, eggs and unlimited no starchy veggies with 4 Protein shakes a day. 6/27: THE BIG DAY! I am scheduled to arrive at the hospital at 1:15pm which makes me nervous since you can have nothing to drink, not even Water after Midnight! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
