Pre Op Testing for TWH

Hi, I was wondering if anyone has a list of pre op testing the TWH requires? I would like to get a head start on things so maybe things might (fingers crossed) move a long a bit faster.
Thank You
Heidi

Hi Heidi!

Enjoy your orientation tomorrow at TWH. I'm just waiting for my surgeon appointment.
There is no pre op test that are required. It depends on your medical history.
If you suspect you have sleep apnea (fatigue, snoring, told stop brething while sleeping etc...) then you can go ahead and ask your GP for a sleep study. They require one within the last 2 years.

When I had my appointment with the Nurse practioner I brought her a copy of my sleep study results, last blood work and an abd ultrasound (had done as having gall bladder issues)

You will get your first 2 appointments tomorrow Nurse practioner and Social Worker)
3 friends in my support group had their orientation Aug 2, and their next appoinments are november.

Good luck, feel free to contact me if you have any other questions,

Leslie
