Iniysa 157 Posted June 5, 2013 What did pre-op testing consist of? I went yesterday. I had a brief meeting with a nut' date=' a nurse, and a physician's assistant. They all asked me the same questions. What are you allergic to? Have you purchased Vitamins and Protein supplements? Who is driving you to and from surgery. I was given a kit which contained two small bottles of soap and and five washcloths. (I was told to wash the surgical area for five days prior to surgery with this kit.) Blood work was the only test that was given. I am a band revision. I am 100% confident in my surgeon. He is one of the best in my state. I just thought there would be more tests. So ready for this!!!!! Monday can't come soon enough.[/quote'] I went in, answered numerous questions, got the normal checks (BP, pulse etc), blood work then was taken for an EKG and an X-Ray. Easy, just took forever. 2 nursesettie and Brenda0928 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
