[blossom11]

Hi lovelies,

So I have my pre op at the hospital tomorrow And I've only gone and lost the letter with the things listed I need to take!!

Apart from my current medication is there anything else I will need to take???


Thanks in advance X X x

I didnt take anything Hun . Did you fill a long form in , ticking boxes etc ? And naming your meds etc ?
There's nothing on my appointment letter either , about taking anything with me ..
I didn't have to show anything . They only took blood , checked heart and swabbed .. It wasn't the doc , just a nurse ..

Thanks Mindy. That's a relief!

Yep all long forms filled in.

Long conversation with the nurse last night. She just said about getting my meds checked tomorrow to make sure I can take them post surgery.

Deep breath and all ready to go!

Feel very empty in my tummy tonight...strange feeling. My tummy is probably in shock due to lack of food!!

What time is your op?

What have they said about taking tablets etc afterwards ? I've got to try and get my Tramadol in liquid form but I'm not sure if I can get Cocodomal in liquid .. Will probably have to crush and eat with a bit of yogurt , blurghhh

I have to be at the Spire at 12pm on tues , not sure what time in pencilled in for though ..

i feel like it's Xmas coming next week !

Hi Mindy.

I take 30/500 cocoadomal they've said I will get it in soluble form when I leave as standard anyway X X X

My other tablets are really small so I'm hoping they'll go down ok!!

We have the save time! I'm down as a day patient but I'm not sure whether to get a hotel or not as 2 hour journey back. How about you?

I'm so excited for you both, it will soon be here for both of you x

I live in outskirts of Southampton so it's a ten minute journey for me . I love my bed so much lol ..
I hope they give me some of those then ! I've just set an alarm on my phone to remind me to call the surgery in the morning and ask them to change future prescription to liquid or soluble ..
My whole life is run on this app I downloaded , I would forget everything if it didn't remind me ! It's called Alarmed , it's free and like having a private secretary !

Diet is making me feel weak though ? I'm not hungry at all and it's actually been an effort to eat my protein this evening .. Is it making you weak also ? I've found I have to stand up slower and try not to straighten up to quick if bent over .. If I do I get a major head rush lol
