Catching a cold bug a week before surgery

[entrophykitten 14]

I am nervous now.

A week out from surgery and I managed to catch a bug from my husband! (Hiss!)

I'm worried they will cancel my surgery.

Has anyone had the sniffles prior to surgery?

I think the best thing you can do is contact your surgeon's office as soon as possible.....They may even be able to give you something to help fight off the bug or perhaps prevent it from getting worse.

But as far as surgery, as long as you don't have a fever, or chest congestion you'll probably be good to go.........but I suggest checking in with your doctor.

Good luck with your upcoming surgery!!

Take Care,
