Hello, how soon did y'all get a date for surgery? Did you guys get a chance to pick the surgery date or do they give you one?

I have important dates during my estimate surgery date.

Thank you.

They called and asked if a certain date was good. For me it was, but if not they had further out dates. Some insurances once approved will allow the approval to be good for a period of time. My insurance approval was good for a year, so im sure youll be able to get a date that works for you.

I told the nurse after my surgery consult that only the 2nd week of May will work for me. She walked over to the schedule and made a note. She told me requests arent a problem but the paperwork can cause a delay if it didnt get submitted in time. We all have a life so I figure whats wrong with giving them a good time for me based on my schedule. Nothing wrong with that. I have heard where they would call if there was an opening to ask if you would like an earlier date. I guess it justs depends if your office is open to requests.

After turning everything in took about a week. My doctor only did surgery on Mondays and Tuesdays. They usually give you a quick date after your approve.

I got to choose my date. They had openings within 2 weeks - 4 weeks. I wanted to be the first surgery of the day (because of my anxiety) so they told me which date they had where I could be first and I decided to go ahead and take it.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
