Pre opt diet

[Catcarter 21]

I have a question. My office gave surgery date of Ocrober 4th. They want to to start my 2 weeks liquid diet on Monday. My question is I have not started on my Vitamins. I am still waiting on my insurance approval first before buying. Should I go ahead and order my vitamins now or should I wait. Thanks!

@@Catcarter I'm supposed to start Vitamins post-op (although I already take Vitamin D). Nothing was mentioned about starting them pre-op.

Are you waiting for insurance approval on the surgery - or for the Vitamins?

I AM WAITING FOR MY APPROVAL FOR INSURANCE

Sorry, I am waiting on approval for my insurance for surgery

@@Catcarter Your surgeon must be confident you will get authorization if they've already scheduled surgery. Ask your NUT if you need to start Vitamins now or if you can wait until post-op. That way - you can order them after you are sure you're approved (and not wasting money). I wouldn't order a lot of them either - that way you won't waste $ if you don't tolerate them. Good luck!!! Fingers crossed your approval comes soon! Don't hesitate to call the insurance company for a status!

Thank you KristenLe. I will keep this in mind. I check my insurance today and still in processing. Hopefully will hear something Monday.
