First, I want to say thank you for all the information provided regarding the surgery for the spleenectomy, removal of the gallbladder, and tail end of the pancreas. My surgery is scheduled for 3/11/2025, and this group has been very informative and helpful. Its a lot to take in, but I am so grateful to know that I am not alone. Is there anyone who has suggestions for pre-surgery? I have approximately 4 weeks until my surgery and am wondering if there is anything I can do physically and nutritionally that would be helpful prior to surgery.

Moderate exercise, eat nutritiously and for a couple of days before surgery shower with an antiseptic soap such as Joycare or Octenisan. Just do things that make you happy or feel good - to go in to surgery positive. All the best!
