What are the things I need to purchase prior to going to have my surgery? ie. Vitamins, good broth, and good protein powder etc. etc...

I am wanting to see if anyone else is having difficulty getting your doctor to sign a medical release form. My doctor acts like even if I am healthy enough to have surgery she still will not sign. This is due to my CHF. I have been given the option to pay extra to have the cardiologist in TJ to test me . The only problem is if he does not qualify me then I will lose my deposit and airfare plus cost of the exam. I know that I am healthy enough to undergo surgery. Give me your suggestions. Thank you!!!!!

Hello this website is wonderful. How many of you out there had any problems with being large and getting a flight that did not mind. I am taking Spirit airlines out of Dallas. How about energy levels after surgery and the ability to walk and how the flight was on the way home. I will be going alone.
Thanks

As you well know any of you that have researched this site have probably seen the post about Dr. Almanza
. I am sure he is a wonderful surgeon but I am very concerned. I would like to know if he has had recent surgical issues. I am 430 lbs.
I would also like to hear from sleevers that have had surgery with Almanza that might be similar to my profile meaning same weight maybe age.Please understand my concern. I am not trying to cause problems I am only doing research.

If anyone knows the best way to qualify for financial aid please give advice. Thanks
