Pre op diet Derby hospital



Recommended Posts

Hi,

I received a phone call today saying my operation for a gastric band will be carried out on 30th Sept.. so i need to start my 2 week pre-op diet tomorrow...

The information for the pre-op diet was supposed to be emailed to me, but I have not received it.. am wondering if anyone knows what the pre-op diet is for Derby hospital...

Thanks in advance...

Loise,

Is that Derby Hospital in CT? I used to live in Derby, a long time ago, in 5-7th grade, way back in 1965-1967.

Oh well, I don't know the answer to your question but I would call the Dr and ask them, or if you saw a nutritionist call their office.

It seems like everyone has something different, I had 12 days of shakes and now am on 2 days of Clear Liquids for my surgery on Friday. But I also have to do a mild prep of Milk of Magnesia on Thursday so you might want to ask about that too.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
