No preop diet, do you think a glass of champagne is safe 5 days before surgery?



Recommended Posts

So the only preop requirement I have is a liquid diet starting noon the day before surgery. The anesthesiaologist told me no alcohol 3 days before surgery. So wondering what other folks thoughts are on this. I've done fine on all my preop prep and lost more weight than was required.

Nothing about alcohol was mentioned before my prep diet which was only 1 day before surgery

I had one the week of my surgery and was just fine. Enjoy because it will be a while before you can again!

My Dr told me no alcohol 3 days before surgery, but you're far enough out even she wouldn't mind. Go for it.

I was told no alcohol 90 days prior to surgery.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
