Preop Appointment May 7th/15

May 17, 2015

I went over to the George Dumont Hospital and did all my preop tests, an ECG, blood work, and a chest xray.  Then I met Rhinette for the first time.  The dietitian.  She talked about the 2 week liquid diet and all the importance of shrinking the liver.  Then she went over the post surgery diet.  It was all very informative and well explained.  I then went and met with the bariatric nurse Monique and gave her all my med list and meds.  She gave me a printout of when I could take each up to surgery.  No arthritic meds from the 16th on.  Ouch.  Then she weighed me and I was up 16 pounds from 8 months ago at my signing day.  She told me she thought they would have to cancell the surgery and went to speak to Rhinette. I almost died right on the spot.  She came back and told me they would put me through to the first week of the liquid preop diet.  But that I had to do well on that one week check in on the 26th or they would cancel the surgery.  I was shaken and explained mother nature was due any day and I would work very hard on the diet.  So home I went and onto the diet.
