6 days til surgery AND

 I'm getting sick!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  scratchy throat, nose is getting stuffy, wtf!! Can I take zicam this close to surgery?  I'm going to call tomorrow and ask.. would they cancel for a cold?  How can I be getting sick? I have not been sick in over 2 years and right now I'm takin vitamins and on a liquid diet, I've lost 20 lbs.. I should be so healthy right now.. ugh!!  If this gets cancelled I will freak!

I had my preop appt last week and the nurse told me to let them know if I came down with a cold.  I'm not in the same boat, but close.  My hubby is getting sick with a cold and I am trying so hard to stay healthy!  I usually take oscillo to keep the colds away - always seems to help me!  They even make a generic now - I know they have it at cvs.  But, you should to be sure you can take anything.  Good luck - I'll be sending good thoughts!

thats really sucks same thing happened to me 2 weeks ago when i was having my lower body lift...i didnt take any meds i just hide it so they wouldnt move it on me...i was fine.

I called the surgeon's office yesterday they said I could take Zicam and anything else I wanted.. and as long as I don't have a fever or I'm not super conjested the surgery will still be on.  I have to call them tomorrow to tell them how I feel.  I stayed home from work today.. I just woke up.. slept a nice 11 hours.. I'm feeling a little better.. I felt like I wa**** by a truck last night =((((  I've got 4 days to get over this crud!!!!! fingers crossed for me please!!  It would totally suck to have to cancel for a damn cold!!!  I've messed up my liquid diet a little.. drinking lots of soups but I need them!!
