Justjune83 4 Posted June 29, 2016 I am suppose to have surgery June 30th 2016 gastric sleeve I took a pregnancy test and found out I was 4-5 weeks pregnant. Would I be able to get surgery or will it be cancelled. I did all my pre op testing and blood work and urine test a couple weeks ago so is there a pregnancy test before surgery? I am confused on what to do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Amurillo04 109 Posted June 29, 2016 It is pretty likely that your surgery will be cancelled since they test you for pregnancy right before the surgery because you will just not be getting enough nourishment to provide for yourself and child.

ocgirl15 667 Posted June 29, 2016 Congrats! I have my tubes tied and I had to still take a pregnancy test. I am sorry but your surgery will be cancelled. No reputable doctor would operate under the circumstances. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sharon1964 2,530 Posted June 29, 2016 You posted this in two places, and I'm answering in both. Call your surgeon's office now and tell them. Your surgery WILL be cancelled. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gripp 34 Posted June 30, 2016 I wish you and your baby the best and you will be able to get the surgery at some point your child is born. Remember your dr and insurance company has all of info and documentation so you won't have to start from scratch.
