Better safe than sorry - and bosses can always adjust so they can go in and take another day off... it is far better to be safe under anesthesia.
Always call in if you are not sure. I got sick before one of mine... I got major drugs and managed to make it on time.
Keep us updated.
Okay, so they told me to just come in for pre-op and we'll figure it out there. The nasal congestion has gotten better - and I'm no longer coughing. (YAY!)
Hopefully they'll give me the okay.
I'll update later today.
Thanks so much! I was so scared to call because I really didn't want to reschedule - people have taken days off work and ahh! It's just so messy you know?
Call your surgeon's office ASAP. You cannot go under anesthesia unless you are perfect.
You may have to postpone a few days. Just make sure. That congestion may be an issue - so contact them now. You cannot cough during surgery.
