So how did the pre admission testing go for you? My surgeon kind of scared me but I know surgery is surgery and anything can happen.... We are a week AWAY can you believe it???? I'm just wondering how you all are doing.

My pre-admission testing went very good. I was a little concerned when I saw that my white blood count (WBC) was slightly elevated; however, the surgeon's nurse told me that would not be a problem (I guess I should have figured since it was Anesthesia who order it). There were no surprises.

The only thing that is concerning is me is being away from work. Since I have never really taken any time off, I am not certain how it will go. I am sure it will be fine, but that does not stop me from worrying.

I haven't been out of work for awhile either. Just make sure you get plenty of rest while your out I know some ppl complain about their energy level. I hope I'm fine I'm only taking 2 weeks.

For me, it was mostly background for Anesthesia, some blood for Anesthesia, and signing paperwork. Could be different depending on your program and what has already been done.

I have that on Friday to sign all the consents and such. I'm pre-admitted to the hospital already and have met with my surgeon again. I'm ready for Monday! How are y'all doing on liquid diet? I'm down 13.3lbs and hanging strong on diet. Hubs is doing a modified liquid diet with me (he is eating 1 sensible meal whereas mine is all liquid).

im down about 10 lbs, getting a lot of headaches tho. Tylenol doesn't seem to be doing much either.

When is your date?

Good luck everyone! Mine is a week from today. I'm having mine done in Tijuana so no pre-admission testing for me. That said, I'm hoping everything checks out fine when I arrive south of the border!

Best wishes to you as well! And also safe travels make sure you take plenty of pictures I love seeing different places and you can help others that are going to Mexico. It's almost that time : )
