I had my preop this week too! I'm going out in a few minutes to have my scrips filled

I did my one-week preop today. I haven't gotten any prescriptions. Should I call my doctor tomorrow and ask about that? I want to be prepared. How do you feel? Are you nervous?

spay and neuter- I had my pre-op on Monday and I also got prescriptions.

One was for Nexuim which I take two the night before surgery and one a day for a month.

Another was for an antibiotic which I take the night before.

Another was for a patch that I put on the night before, take of for am shower, and then reapply behind ear.

I also take Reglan fo nasaeu one hour before surgery.

And last I get an OTC antiseptic body wash that I have to shower with the night before and morning of.

Hope that helps. I would call the dr or nurse and just double check.

You will need prescriptions for your pain meds and anti-naseau (sp). I got mine when I went into the hospital and they filled them right there. So it was nice and easy.

This is very helpful info. I'll take it to my doctor's office. I'm already on Nexium. I DO get very nauseous from general anesthesia. I'll mention the patch. Thank you so very much.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
