Dec. 5th!!!

 I got my date, Dec. 5th, RNY.  I was really nervous about getting approval from my insurance, but all went through and I am finally on my way!!  I do have a question in regards to testing prior to surgery.  I had blood work done a few weeks ago and that was it.  Is there more to preop work besides the two week liquid diet? I got in the mail today a paper confirming my date and the time of surgery, I am just surprised at how I haven't had to do more.  

Hi  i think that is it unless they want you to see the anethesiolgist.

good luck it wont be long now
you will be on the losing bench with the rest of us!!!!

 Thanks Patty!

I did receive the paperwork with my pre and post op follow ups and it is n/a for the anesthesiologist.  I believe I am just going to receive a phone call from them.  

I am so excited to join you guys on the losers bench!

I hope that your surgery went well!!

 Things went well, I have a low grade fever, but they still let me go home.  The worst part has been the gas, which is still being stubborn and won't come out.  Let me tell you I have walked and walked and walked.  I know it must come out soon, I don't see how it can't.  I just got home today and cannot wait to sleep in my own bed.  The hospital beds were a killer.
