I'm going to Mexico on Thursday and getting sleved on friday, yes the 13th and i started getting sick yesterday. Seriously...WTH!! I havent been sick in over a year...why the hell now. On an amazing note, I've been doing my pre-op diet for a week now and I'm down 13 pounds. Really hoping to start feeling better before I get to Mexico.

Emergen-c!

I would go to your PCP. I would try to build up your immune system before surgery. It took alot out of me. I had just started getting a sore throat the day of surgery. I had a real hard time breathing afterwards. Don't play around with it. It was scary for me.

My surgery is this Monday and I woke up Friday with a head cold. I haven't been sick in over a year! I took a bunch of vitamin-C and Airborne, and drank a lot of watered down OJ and today I can breathe through my nose again. I was so worried I would have to miss surgery on Monday, but I read that as long as you don't have a fever and you can breathe decently, it shouldn't be an issue. Hopefully you have enough time to recover between now and next week.

I have to drive 10 minutes to the hospital for my surgery, so I can't imagine how upsetting it would be to get sick right before a trip to Mexico. I'll take some extra Vitamin C for you! Hope you feel better!

Thanks for the tips. I have been drinking the emergenc in my protein shakes and I think I will call the pcp on Monday.
