Does anyone know if I can take my anxiety meds?

You haven't been advised of what you can and can't take before now?

What anxiety meds hae you been prescribed? I assume your surgeon knows you have been prescribed these meds?

He did tell me I could start taking my meds unfortunately I didn't mention my anxiety one because I hadn't taken them in a while however I'm feeling quite anxious today and feel like I could use one

Are you ok? Anxiety sucks! I like to read, and meditate when I’m feeling anxious. It took a lil practice, but it really works for me now. What are things you do to help it?

I let my surgeon know I took a benzo (Xanax) daily and they put it in my drip surgery day so I wouldn't go into withdrawal. I resumed taking it as prescribed the next day. (Swallowing the pill.)

I'M NO DOCTOR, so if you can call one, that's what I recommend. But in my case, taking them was not an issue at all.

If it's extended-release, as mine was, you may have to find a different formulation. Fortunately, regular release works fine for me now.
