Getting ready
March 19: I completed my pre-anethesia clinic last Friday. This consisted of an EKG, blood draw and answering some general health questions. It also included meeting with a different Urologist than the one who's doing the surgery. I think this is a check and balance step on the part of the hospital. I can't eat any solid foods past breakfast the day before surgery. Then, I have a self-service kit to make sure my intestinal tract is empty. Not looking forward to that procedure but all necessary. Anxiety is building and I'm finding myself working to make sure I have everything done that I won't be able to do for awhile.
