[Susan 2.0 278]

Hi' date=' was that yesterday about 11:00? I heard them on a call while I was there. They are all so nice in this office.[/quote']

Yes! Call was from 10-12. How about that. Small world :-)

Were you there for your pre-op? What time is your surgery on Monday? I'll keep you & Dr. H in my prayers for a successful surgery & easy recovery.

Yes. Surgery is at 7:00am. First of the day. Thank god. It would drive me nuts if I had to wait all day. I'm getting really nervous!

Mine is first on a Monday, too. I had planned to follow the general "warnings" (old wives tales?) about not scheduling surgeries for Monday mornings or Fridays so I was skeptical - until Tammy told me that she MADE SURE her surgery was his first on a Monday. That changed my mind about old wives tales!

I agree that I would have been a bundle of nerves if I had to wait part of the day before going in. I'm already not going to be able to sleep the night before! Denise said taking a Benadryl the night before to get some sleep "is usually safe". Not sure if I'm going to try that, though. I've never been "put under" so I'm not taking any chances on mixing sleep meds.

Did Dr.H suggest getting a flu shot 2 weeks prior to surgery? My PCP suggested it but Denise was skeptical since I haven't had one in the past several years & don't know if I'll have a reaction to it.

they gave me my flu shot while I was in the hospital.

I do get the flue shot year by year, but will wait until later in the year. I was asked about the pneumonia shot though. Where are you staying the night before? We MADD reservations at the Hilton. Good price and really close.

The Hilton Garden Inn. I'm hopefully using credit card points to pay for the night before & the night after for my parents. Or, rather, for my Dad because my step-mom will be staying overnight in the hospital with me.

Not sure I knew there is a pneumonia shot...?

Interesting... I'd think they'd be concerned about a reaction considering your natural defenses are down after the surgery. Guess not! :-)

Sept 26th for me here in Houston

Hubby was sleeved on Mon the 17. He is doing well and enjoyed an extra day of rest in the hospital.

My time: Thinking of you this evening. Less than 11 hours until you're starting a new phase in life!! Many blessings to you.
