Tuesday Pre – op
My pre op was scheduled for 9am the day before my operation.
I was told not to eat anything 8 hours before coming into the hospital and went
to bed at 10 am the night before. On arrival at the hospital I had a brief consultation
with Dr Eakpatipan who explained what tests I would be having. The nurses then
took over and extracted blood, sent me to get an urine sample, tested blood
pressure, assessed weight and height and then took me for a chest x-ray and EXG
exam. When all the results were in I went back to see the doctor. Thankfully
everything was in order and I had no problems with any of the tests. This was a
bit bitter sweet as I meant I was healthy but it also meant I was cleared for
the operation which I was not looking forward to the day after. The doctor then
explained the procedure for the following day and I left for home and to
prepare.
