SURGERY TOMORROW & SICK AS A DOG

Well, surgery's tomorrow (Tuesday, February 3, 2015) and I'm sick: runny nose; soar throat; headache; swollen glands; cough; postnasal drip...drip...drip. I do have extreme allergies and I'm hoping it's that. I don't have a fever and I'm not short of breath. What would you do???

Thanks so much, Della! I guess I really don't have a choice!

Curious to know what your doctor said.

He said as long as I wasn't running a fever or had chest congestion we were good! So now I'm 3 days out and doing great! Still have a runny nose & its trying to go down in my chest, but I'm fighting it off. Prayers would be a great help! Thanks!!!
