pre surgery testing

[cristalrosebud 0]

I will be going in for my pre surgery testing tomorrow morning. Anyone know if I should go in fasting? I should have called on fri but dident get a chance and it will be 2 early in the morning to call the Dr office.

I had to fast for my blood work... But I had my blood work done a few days in advance of my pre admissions testing.. I didn't have to fast for the testing it was just a ton of questions of medical history.. probably varies for everyone though! hope that helps : )

Better safe than sorry...it's probably too late but fast is you can.

I'm going in tomorrow too. However, I've already had all my blood work done. If you're having blood work, I would fast. If not, you're probably ok. Good Luck!

the blood work and upper GI require fasting.. other than that your good.

i didnt have to fast for my bloodwork (although it would have been best because the numbers were skeewed), but DID have to fast for my GI.
