Getting sick will they make me reschedule surgery?

[Reimerl 7]

Everyone around me has been really sick with the flu. Not stomach thank goodness. I'm coming down with this darn thing, wondering if I will have to reschedule. I'm afraid I will be full blown on Friday when my surgery is scheduled

Can you take some cold-eeze to see if it will stop the symptoms? Dose up on a bunch of Vitamins and see how you feel for the next 24 hours. I would have a hard time rescheduling the surgery date and then starting the pre-op diet over again. But then again, you don't want to be sick. Sorry you are finding yourself in this situation. I'm sure you will do whatever is best. Maybe try the vitamins for 24 hours and then call the doc if you still think you are getting sick.

Everyone around me has been sick. I've been doing Zicam and airborne for the last 2 weeks. I'm afraid I'm delaying the inevitable. Each day another symptom surfaces. I've added Vitamin C too along with Vitamins.

Calling doc tomorrow to see what they say.

Yes I know I don't want to have to start the Clear liquids over considering he makes us do 4 weeks after!!!!

You don't want surgery, especially, aneasthesia, with a virus in you.

My suggestion, call asap so they can reschedule you the sooner the better.

Yep rescheduled for either the 8th or 15th. It was nice to have some homemade chicken noodle Soup tonight!
