Surgery update!

So my surgery has been moved from next Friday (the 21st) to tomorrow at 3:30. I've been in so much pain and have lost so much weight that my doctor doesn't want to wait any longer.

I'm off to begin the dreaded bowl-prep. Fun-Fun!

Hi, Debby. I missed this until the other day and then wanted to contact my dietician before responding.

The multi that I am taking is manufactured by the doc I saw in Chicago. After blood work they determine dosage. I thought it was a "one fits all" multi vitamin (or "one fits all cancer survivors"), but it is not.

I would ask your oncologist if he/she has any thoughts.

Ugh, the dreaded bowl prep. Please let us know how it goes.

Jo - thank you for the update. It sounds like several positive things are happening (how mom is feeling, her weight, coming to conclusion about the house). You must be feeling some relief.
