Pre-op tomorrow at TWH

Hi all

Anyone had pre op at TWH recently?? Mine is tomorrow ...

What exactly happens ??

Thanks in advance.

i cant speak to TWH.. but i assume most are the same. this is what you would do if you were at guelph, you meet with a nurse and go over your medical history, get blood work done, meet the anesthesiologist, get the time youre to go to the OR at on the day of surgery...

I was at St. Joe's in Toronto. First I had to register, and then I was taken to a meeting with my surgeon. Dr. Lindsay explained the procedure, answered all of my questions, asked me a few, and spent about 20 minutes with me. Then I met with the nurse, the anasthesiologist, pharmacist, and some other people. I think I had some blood taken, and I was weighed. I met the whole team that day, and afterward went to the surgeon's office to pick up 3 weeks worth of Optifast. There was enough to fill a small suitcase, after taking the packets out of their boxes.

Thanks for your reply.. Pre op done. Blood work, ECG, anestheologist, and the nurse went over all my medical history.

Starting opi monday april 10 ... The the big day April 24..

So happy.

Hi Jaype83,

All the best on the 24th. Mine is on the 25th. I just had my pre op today via Telehealth from Oshawa. Maybe we will see each other at TWH. I am looking forward to the life changing event.
