May Sleevers...where are you?



Recommended Posts

Hello all

I am scheduled for surgery on May 6th. I am scheduled for pre-op visit with my Doctor in two weeks and final pre-op labs that same day. I am anxious to get this done as it has been a long journey getting to this point. I am having my surgery done at Kaiser South Bay in California. :)

Im also in Cali!!! Yeay!!

I'm scheduled for May 18! I had hoped to have it done in March too, but I got set back when they diagnosed me with sleep apnea. 6 weeks of monitoring that, and now it's only 27 days away (but who's counting!).

I'm so excited, and so are my worn out knees. Ready to do this!

I just did pre op today! First was getting vials and going over medical history and medications with a nurse, then I got an EKG and a couple tubes of blood drawn and then Chest xrays. I also spoke with an anesthesia nurse about preop stuff like no food after midnight and washing with a chlorhexadine scrub the night before. I also signed more papers and got my admission time and directions for surgery day. I had had extensive bloodwork and an EKG done in December, so that was just recheck stuff.
