Hi girls, just wondering if everyone had blood tests as when I went to see the nurse she didn’t take any and I don’t know when I will find time between now and my op to have it taken and sent to analysis… Worried I will turn up and they will say they can’t do it because of no blood tests. Anyone else had similar? xxx
I had my pre op on wed and had no blood tests! She said she didnt need to take any! :/ x
I didnt have any, they only do it if your medical history indicates that you might need one only tests i had was a urine one on day of op to check your not preg lol x
I only had mine done because of my iron levels .. When’s your op ? Xxx
29th march at highgate ! You nervous ? I don’t know where my nerves have gone I’m just excited now lol xxx
Hi hun i was 3 weeks poat op on wednesday and i only half my pre-op the week before..before they even looked at my notes they said it’s a new rule everyone needs blood tests and mrsa swabs, you may have yours at the hospital? I would ring and check xx
Hi @Pepperpot I had the swabs taken and pictures, bmi etc but no bloods. She didn’t mention it and i forgot to ask with the excitement of it all. I will give them a call on Monday, although my pc seems to be an elusive sort. Sent three texts recently and nothing 🙁 xx
@Jasmine I still have a few nerves as I feel a bit out the loop with my pc but everyone on here is fab and theat keeps the excitement up haha x
Yeah deffo don’t know what I would of done without this forum and the girls
On here good luck Hun xx
It may depend on your surgeon don’t worry about it xx
I had mouth swabs but blood tests are only necessary for some patients, if your medical history doesn’t call for a blood test they wont do one. There’s no point them wasting money on tests unnecessarily. MRSA swabs, pictures, weighing etc is standard for everyone x
@babycakess highgate is lovely, mine was there too. Nurses are fab! good luck for 29th 🙂
i had 2 pre-op meetings (one for vaser one for ba) in fenchurch, london and twice blood was taken. maybe give a call to your pc to be 100% sure?

I had my pre op done today and two types of swabs were taken, pictures, bmi and bloods… thou have to go back tomorrow as the nurse forgot to get me to sign one of the forms, but thats no biggie as Fenchurch Street is only 15 mins away from work. If you in any doubt about should have been taken just text/phone your PC. 😀 x
