As of Wednesday I was all clear. However, the pulmonologist read my sleep study which shows I have severe sleep apnea. He is going to try and get connected w my own machine before my surgery on the 11th- I told him that I don't want to delay my surgery. Its been scheduled for 6 mos. Anyone hear about this being an issue? Cant they just have a cpap and adjust at the time of the surgery? The dr’s office had my report.

Has anyone in early January had a pre op appointment yet, where they tell you what your pre op diet will be ? I havent had it yet and I am 1/11. I read the guidelines and its not totally liquids. That surprised me.

I've had mine however my Dr told me I only needed 1 day liquid anything else was my choice. Shocking based on everyone's story but I belive it depends on your body type and lab work. I still started liquid 12/26 to prepare myself mentally for what's to come I follow step 2 for pre op

My program requires it of everyone across the board, 2 weeks Clear Liquids, with 4-5 Protein Shakes a day. It's just their protocol. I dislike it but I learned a new thing, I can do liquids for 2 weeks. I've been very rigid about it and these past few days it's been harder cravings wise, but the days are going by.

I only have liquid from noon the day before surgery.
