Guest guest Posted November 17, 2003 Report Share Posted November 17, 2003 , I think it is pretty much a procedure to drink the magnesium citrate the day before. I had to drink mine at 6pm the night before. You are doing great and you will do fine tomorrow too. I will have you and all the rest in my prayers tomorrow. You will be a post op before you know it. By the way what is your last name? I will call and check on you. Love Ya, A. B. LAP RNY 3/22/03 Dr. Steve Weinstein, MD.

Guest guest Posted November 17, 2003 Report Share Posted November 17, 2003 Different doctors have different requirements. Thank goodness I didn't have to do laxitives or the Mag/Cit. He just put me on a clear liquids after breakfast the day before surgery. I was worried as I had seen my dad and mom take that liquid and spend hours in very close proximity to the potty! Good Luck!
