I have a surgery date!!!!! As soon as I scheduled my endoscopy, it prompted a call from the surgeon's office to schedule surgery and pre-op testing. It turns out that the pre-op testing is just a few days before the endoscopy. I'm easily amused and find that slightly humorous.
So, the big day..... April 26th!!
I remain excited, anxious, terrified... it's so emotional. My life is going to change forever. I wasn't this nervous on my wedding day (or night, since I was a virgin when I got married)! In one simple surgery, my entire way of eating, foods I can eat, portion size.... they all go out the window and it's like I'm a baby starting from scratch. In essence, I guess that's what it is. I have to be on a liquid diet after surgery and then pureed food and then it's a matter of testing out foods and seeing what doesn't make me sick, and what I like. I understand from others that food tastes differently after surgery. Maybe I won't crave chocolate anymore. Hmmmm, is that even possible for someone who has a vagina?
It's pretty late, but for the 3 people who read this, I wanted to let you know.
