I have been having many restless nights since I got my surgery date. But last night I awoke at 2am and my throat was tight and felt like it was scratchy inside. Good lord..what is happening to my throat? So...my dream was about having surgery cancelled while under anesthetic. Is there actually any reason that you would not be a candidate after you had passed all the pre-op tests? I mean they get inside and decide nope no sleeve for her?

It was crazy..like something had been shoved down my throat. Never experienced this before.

I have already had my pre admission clinic at the hospital and I passed everything. I just don't know why I am so nervous all of a sudden.

Several things could cause your procedure to be canceled after you are in the operating room and under anesthesia, the first being a serious change in cardiac rhythm. Your surgeon could encounter an enlarged liver, bleeding issues or other issues that would cause him to abort the procedure. Fortunately with pre op screening this issues are not common.
