HI Chris

Good luck with the pre op its easy really, they check your height weight blood pressure make you take a blood test, and measure you up for your thrombosis stockings (mmmm) check your heart and do an ecg if needed and thats it :D
 
general health check to make sure your ready for surgery, weight hieght, blood maybe a urine sample and usually a ecg, good luck, what dates your op hun x x x
 
Good Luck with your appointment today, not long now, Karen x
 
Good luck Chris, thinking of you xxx
 
Good luck with the appointment - at my pre-op appt, I had blood pressure checked, got given diet sheet, got given my date, met with the anesthetist who asked me questions re: past anaesthesia + any problems with it, whether I have loose teeth.
Also had swabs taken to check for MRSA. I don't know what your hospital is like, but I had to have a swab from my nose + groin. It's a bit embarrassing, but ensures your safety in the long run :)
