Will they still do the surgery if I am sick?



Recommended Posts

Gah! I'm sick, I think. My daughter had this for a week, and then my husband had it for a week, so I am pretty sure from those experiences and my symptoms that I am getting what they had. Low grade fever, terrible chest pressure, itchy/burning in my chest and throat, and I have a dry, unproductive cough. As the day has progressed, my sinuses have clogged and my eyes and nose are running. My sleeve surgery is scheduled for Thursday. If this crap I have continues like it did for my family members, on Thursday I should be totally congested, coughing, feeling miserable. What really concerns me is that when I get a heavy cold, my asthma usually kicks in, and it often develops into bronchitis. I'm calling my surgeon's office in the morning. Will they still do the surgery, or will I have to postpone? I canNOT believe I am this close and am getting sick. I feel awful, both physically and emotionally!
