Ok. Since I'm a traveling nurse and a cash pay patient, everything is going by quickly. I decided to have the surgery about 3 weeks ago, had consultation, paid money and am scheduled for next Wednesday. I'm feeling a certain way, because I'm not being told anything. I've heard about the preop diet but haven't been told to start one. Should I be concerned? What is the preop diet all about?

Pre op diet is mostly a liquid diet to shrink your liver so it's not in the way during surgery. It's no crabs and no sugars

I'm wondering why I haven't been instructed to start one. Surgery is in 4 days
