Did Anyone Else Have A Cough Going Into Surgery?



Recommended Posts

I know I've posted this a few times, but I'm still sort of nervous....I'm scared they'll cancel my surgery on Monday.

I still feel a tickle in my lungs, but it's not productive. I just have an occasional cough.

Anyone else have surgery with a cough? Or anyone out there with asthma? I don't have asthma, but imagine that they would need to treat me the same way prior to the procedure....

I hope they don't postpone your surgery, it was hard enough to wait this long. I think i'd die if they postponed mine. well, now for some encouragement i think if it's just a dry cough you'll be alright. Make sure the cough medi! You want to get anything that's in there out... good luck my surgery is the 28th in Tijuana as well. I leave out monday...

i tried to say above that make sure your cough med is an expectorant not a suppressant... hit the return key....

I just talked to the doctor's office....they said they could give me a nebulizer or something along those lines and then see if it helps. They didn't make it sound like it was a deal-breaker (whew!).
