Oh No!! I'm starting to freak out. My hubby came home sick with cold/flu! I tried to keep my distance but I think he got me sick! My surgery is scheduled for Dec. 16th and I don't want to reschedule for the 3rd time! What should I do?! I don't even know if I can drink any cold/flu meds?! HELP?!

I was sick with the flu before surgery too. I went to the doctor and explained the situation. And that I would not reschedule so it was her job to get me well before hand. She gave me a shot and gave me meds (not on my surgeon's don't take in the 2 weeks before surgery list). It worked. I was so much better in operation day. I had no fever by then and just a little nasal drainage. Good luck to you!

ooohhh noooo! GINGER TEA! lots of water! call your dr! find out what you can take and what you cant take. good luck to you & keep us posted.
