skysmom 0 Posted September 1, 2008 Congrats! How was the pre-surgery diet? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BaraaMehdar 0 Posted September 2, 2008 i didn't know about the Multivitamins for life, i guess the doctor was going to prescribe another 6 months of it i also think the antibiotic is for a quick healthy recovery for the stomach and the wound Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BaraaMehdar 0 Posted September 2, 2008 about the pre-op diet: the doctor told me i should only drink liquids one day before the surgery and thats it!! may be because of my age and the fact that i never drank alcohol in my life my liver was not enlarged so much but thats only what i think, i didn't get the chance to ask the doctor Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RestlessMonkey 7 Posted September 2, 2008 My liver wasn't fatty because of alcohol LOL it was fatty because of fat! But it's better now! I was very obese and I'm sure that's why he put me on the diet; all surgeons are just a little bit different! :tt2: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BaraaMehdar 0 Posted September 2, 2008 sorry i didn't mean to imply that your liver is enlarged because of drinking i just read somewhere in the forum about this issue and this is what i understood from the topic i am glad you took it this friendly way otherwise i am sorry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RestlessMonkey 7 Posted September 2, 2008 It's ok I wasn't at all insulted. I don't know which is worse...drinking too much alcohol or too many milkshakes! Nice of you to apologize to me but it wasn't needed at all! :blushing: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
