illness prior to surgery? Did your surgery go ahead??

@@nikki1980

I've heard many times that people get sick/have a cold prior to surgery

if there is no fever DOS - surgery should proceed

(always exceptions with diff doc)

are there a few days before scheduled surgery for your health to improve??

not sure if swollen gland are considered a little more serious???

call your doc now

get his thoughts

feel better

good luck

speedy recovery

Were you able to continue surgery without complications from you being sick? I just ask because I too am ill 3 days before surgery...sinus infection.

I have surgery on Tuesday and I too have been sick. Went to doc in the box today and got 2 shots (antibiotics and steroids) He said if I felt better I should be fine....but what about getting the steroids...should I be worried? No fever, no pneumonia. On Levaquin....soooo worried they will want to reschedule??!!!

You need to contact your dr regarding the steroids. Did the dr you went to know that you were having surgery this week?

I'm scheduled for surgery on Wednesday and am starting to feel ill. I'm going down to the nurse in our building to check my temp. I hope that it's ok.

Yeah I told the doc I was having surgery. And I called my surgeon this morning and they said as long as I felt better and wasn't running a fever I was good to go!
