November 2013 Surgeries

You've done so well Nicola! It could be hormonal? I had 3 slow weeks and then BOOM! 9lb gone after my period... Dont panic too much :D (she says...)
 
Hey guys, I just wanted to ask you a question.. I've gotten my date, it's the 3rd of Feb! I've started pre op diet today. Milk, yoghurts and multi vits and mineral tablets. The thing is, I'm confused about the vits and mins tablets... I spoke to a pharmacist (asked for chewable so I can still use then when I've had the op) at boots earlier and he told me to take boots home brand multi vits, but not minerals...? He just kept saying "you get your minerals from water so as long as you're drinking some that will be fine" what kind did you take? I can't speak to my provider till Monday now. Thanks guys x

I didn't have any vits pre-op so can't help you x

I didn't have vitamins pre op Kirsty x
 
I was told I'd just start them after my op, but it says to take one a day on the pre op diet sheet so! Thank you anyway! Xx

I have a doctors appointment in Feb, I'm going to get the doc to prescribe me some vits :)
 
The hospital sent my doc a letter and on it it said to prescribe me some fast tabs and vits and mins but he told me I need to buy my own vits and mins.. X

That's ok sweet :) The pharmacist sold you their own brand as any shop would ;) The centrum ones taste yummy and have sweetner instead of sugar so all good there too!

Butterfly, yet to have curry and cant see you pic on my phone :( Looking forward to it lol. Im tucking into a cod & parsley fish cake with peas and cauliflower. Its so filling!
 
Found out today the lady in the bed next to me at Addenbrookes died last week. She was taken to HDU just after midnight New Year's Day after we watched the fireworks together and joked about what a s*** new year it was!! Her last words to me were bye bye Nicola good luck! I'm so upset :( she originally only came in for an endoscopy!
