Good luck Buzz. Hoping for the best outcome here.

Diet for 4 weeks

No nuts
No seeds
No popcorn
No Fruits or vegetables unless pureed to mush
NO carbonation, yes beer is carbonated

After his okay, fish, fish, chicken, fish, cream of wheat, eggs, cheese (hard), little red meat, apple juice, grits blah, blah, blah

wine aint carbonated.................but you got to quit being fat Buzz. Quit shoving chit in your piehole man. It aint hard.

Only way you are going to lose weight is to eat like a bird and crap like a horse.

Hang in there Buzz, I start my prep on Monday with the low fiber diet, procedure is on Thursday.

was healing up great, did something, sneezed, or something but now have a small hernia under the main incision. CRAP. I have a abdominal restrainer coming tomorrow. Its a big stretch band with a cushion that goes over the hernia.

My Doc's out of town but I BET he sends me for a scan then surgery to fix the hernia

CRAP !!!

stay tuned.

Best of luck Buzz!

Mike, how did yours turn out?

Both tests came back negative they are starting to think that it was a false positive. I do need to have my blood monitored to make sure my hemoglobin is stable. I can get by just fine, if my hemoglobin is low, as long as it's stable. The day of the procedure, I was noticing that all the nurses were young and average at best, until I got into the procedure room, the Nurse Anesthetist was really attractive and in her 40's; she promptly put me to sleep.

Thats great Mike !! my pulmonologist came in to set up my CPAP, she was HOT, how embarrassing...

I got my abdominal binder today, really works.
