I wonder how long it will be between this appt and surgery?
I hope I don't get 'cancelled' for surgery at the last minute as I have heard others experience.
It's a long journey from up here.

Surgery is usually 4-6 weeks later (give or take)
Good luck today

You will need to calculate the minimum time you will need to be on Optifast. Personally, in Ottawa, it was 6 weeks from surgeon`s appt to surgery (3 weeks of Opti).

Hi Heather, so happy for you for being this far, it shouldn't be too much longer for you. I don't think they cancel very often and usually for good reason, right....

Sometimes you just put one foot in front of the other, even if you don't know where you're going.
