I am scheduled for surgery tomorrow and have a rotten cold. I am sneezing, coughing. If I don't miraculously lose it by tomorrow, I doubt seriously they will operate. I have been on liquids for a week and can't imagine getting my date pushed back to who know when. :thumbdown:

Oh no!!! I wish I had some advice, just letting you know I am praying for you!!!

make sure you let your surgeon know... you do not want to be fighting a cold/flu and trying to recuperate from surgery. : ( Sorry to hear that you are feeling under the weather.

I was in the same boat as you pre surgery. Be sure to let your surgeon know if there is any congestion or fever. Me... I didn't have congestion so much as just post nasal drip and a scratchy throat. I think they pump you full of antibotics and fluids. By the time I was cohearant from surgery all my cold symptoms were gone because of all the antibotics and fluids. SO my advise is to continue unless you have congestion and fever. Or if you just have one of those. I hope for the best... Good luck

Thanks for the advice and well wishes.

I hope this doesn't prevent you from having your surgery!

Good luck!! Have you called your surgeon's office?

hope you get better and ready for your surgery......wish you the best.:001_unsure:

Thanks, and no Goodlife I didn't call the dr. I figured he would cancel on me and I might be better tomorrow so I'm just hoping

Maddie... what happened? Did you have your surgery?

I saw in another thread where you were one day out! How do you feel one day later??!! I'm so curious and so anxious to get to Texas and get this done!! I can't wait! Good luck to you!!
