Sick right before surgery!



Recommended Posts

My surgery is next wednesday and I woke up this morning sick as a dog. I'm pretty sure I have strep throat, I go to the doctor in an hour. I hope this doesn't effect my surgery, I'm so worried about it. Please send me some get well vibes!!!!!!

What did the Doc say? I hope all goes well for you! I had a huge infected abcess in my tooth just before my surgery and I had an emergency extraction, then was on antiobiotics. Thank goodness it all worked out and my surgery went on as planned. I hope the same goes for you!

Let us know!

I got my "friend" on the day of surgery. I had to wear these surgical strechy undies with the hospital size pad, talk about uncomfortable. But it didn't matter.

I am guessing that if you are having breathing problems you might have to postpone. Check with the surgeons office ASAP.

i had a stomach flu, the worst, most violent i have ever had. I had it for 3 whole days, severe vomitting and diarhea, I got well 2 days before surgery!!!!! and it was fine!!! ......now yours most likely is some sort of infectio0n, and that could be a different story, so definelty check with your dr......trust me the post op is bad enough on its own you dont want to make it worse by going ahead when you are really sick with something that can really affect you....so go with whatever your dr says!!!!!!

I don't have strep thank god! He just said I had a virus...the easy answer to everything...lol. I just have a cold. I feel a lot better today than I did yesterday but I sound like a man now...lol. I went to bed about 6:30 last night and didn't get up until 11 today, I don't think I've slept that long since before I had kids. I called to my surgeons office today and they said that unless I get worse that I will mostlikely be fine for surgery. So, that's a relief. I'm just going to keep taking the meds they gave me and hopefully I'll be better by the weekend.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
