help part 2

Also does anyone know if you can eat or drink the night before a gall bladder ultrasound and prior to the WLS? Thanks Melissa

Your usual NPO after midnight unless there are other instructions from your doctor. However, to give you the least chance of post-op nausea, my policy has always been to go on liquids only for at least 1-2 days prior to surgery. This also helps hydrate your body so the IV is easier to get in. I have had multiple surgeries and have never experienced nausea afterwards. The thought of vomiting with a fresh incision has been my driving force! OUCH!
