I had surgery when I was on my period before--appendectomy--so yes, they can and do still do surgeries even if it is that time of the month. :) Just make sure to tell your nurse so no one freaks out about blood in the urine...:)

I don't see any reason thay would not. I am a RN and we do surgery on pt's at "that time" I think it would only affect if you were anemic or your iron was very low. I get sleeved on the 12th,I will be thinking of you and keep you in my prayers.

 Okay, so I need to rant for a moment.  I am scheduled for surgery in 4 days, the 13th...no problems there.  Problem is that I have PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome) and I MAYBE have 2 periods a year.  I guess it's from the pre-op diet, but I started my period today!!!  I know this is a silly question, but...do you think they will go ahead  with the surgery if I am having my period?

Surgery date April 13th!!!

Good luck on your surgery !  Where are you having it?  I know Salem pretty well, we have family there, but are originally from Eugene.  We're up in the Seattle area now.

I'm a week behind you, scheduled for the 20th.

My surgery is on the 20th.  Sounds like I need to stock up on pillows !

Hope you're feeling better soon.  I'm sure the sleep is part of your body healing itself.  Don't forget to walk !
