Question:
I'm three days away from open rny and it feels like I'm catching a cold.
Should I call my surgeon about this? — origamistar (posted on March 8, 2009)

If you're actually suffering with symptoms then yes, absolutely give your
surgeon a call so he has a head's up, especially is you start running a
fever. If you're not having symptoms yet and only *think* you're coming
down with something then I would say hold off and see how you're feeling in
another day or so. Every surgeon is different with how they'll proceed.
Some will only cancel the surgery if you have a fever, others will cancel
for the slightest sniffle but regardless, the surgeon needs to know...Good
luck!

Prior to my surgery I felt like I may have been getting a cold and I took
vitamin C drops and was fine. Good luck.
