  1. Coffee shots and heparin injections and pre op diet

    So I picked up a couple of boxes of clexane (heparin) today. It's a blood thinning injection that I have to have every day for a month starting the night before surgery. I shall just stab myself in the belly every night. It stops all the nasty things like blood clots after surgery.
    I also discovered a way to make the chocolate optifast shake a little more palatable. I put it in the vitamix with ice and a little bit of water and a shot of espresso. Taaaa daaa. This has changed my life! ...
  2. Consent signed

    Hi,
    Popped in to see my surgeon today and got my consent signed and paid him up.
    I'm glad thats all done. im going to have some b12 injections and maybe a couple of iron infusions. My ferratin and b12 has always been a bit in my boots. My partner is a doctor so thats handy, she can jab me!
    The preop diet is fine, day 2. Like I said before, it's not nice but it does the trick. I'm just following everything to the letter and it's fine.
    Hope everyone is travelling well ...
