Uh-Oh...i'm Getting Sick And Its 8 Days Til Surgery

Just my luck. Lastnight I noticed that my throat was getting very scratchy. Tonight when I woke up before coming to work I noticed that my throat was hurting terribly and my nose is stuffy. WTH?!?!?

Hope this doesn't effect my surgery. :wacko:

I'm sure it won't! Just take some vitamins! Good luck with your big day!! :)

If you are full blown sick it probably will. Take extra good care of yourself and rest as much as you can... good luck!

Thanks Kepsy! How is your process going?

I go to my PCM tomorrow for my labs and referrals to the Cardiology, Pulmonology, Gastro, and Psych. Hopefully I can get appointments sooner rather than later. I am hoping for a January surgery date. Keep your fingers crossed for me. Thank you for asking.

I've been petrified of the SAME thing now that I'm only a couple days away from my surgery. I've been trying to drink as much water as I can, REST as much as I can and am constantly washing my hands and using Wet Ones! Take some sugar free Vitamin C drops and keep drinking lots of water. I think you will be okay!
