Pre-Op Appointment!

[bekki03 51]

My pre-op appointment is at 10 am (EST). I am having a hard time thinking about what to ask my Doctor. I am very prepared...but have no clue as to what to ask him. Are there any questions you all didn't ask but wish you had? Thanks!

Hello bekki, I don't recall having any questions at my pre-op visit mainly because I asked them all along from the start. By now you probably already know how long your hospital stay will be and what the post-op diet is going to be etc. If not then that's something you'd want to ask. My surgeon's team had already set up my post-op visits based on the surgery date as well. If you have doubts or concerns about ANYTHING ask now!

Good luck!

I have all the surgery and diet stuff down to memory, lol. I want to ask the sex question and my friend had the same surgeon. She didn't see him before and that makes me so anxious. I want to see him before he cuts into me.

You should see your surgeon right before he starts. When I had my surgery, I was in a prep room and that is where my anestheologist (sp?) came in and we spoke for a few minutes and he answered any questions, then my Dr. came in to say hello and ask if Ihad any questions. Then after about 15 minutes the nurse came and got me, I had to walk to the OR and right before I walked into the OR they had me on the scale then I hopped on to the OR table, saw my dr. there once again he asked if I was OK and if I had any questions then it was light out - LOL.
