Overnighters…

…what time did you go down for surgery and how long did you have to fast beforehand…think I’m gonna starve lol xx

my admission time was 7:30 am, went down to surgery at 12pm, i had a large evening meal the night before. But i was so tired from being up at 5 to travel down, i slept while waiting to go into surgery. x

hi i gotta b in at 7.30am 2 moz an was told not to eat or drink after 12 tonight and i was told ill b going down at 9am xx

Is that for a day case or overnight stay kris?x

I had to be in for 7.30am, was up at 4am… killer Didnt go down untill 11.30am and had lunch about 3pm. You will be fine, last thing on your mind is food lol! Whens your op hun? xxx

I was an overnighter at Highgate. Admission time was 2pm and went down to theatre at 5pm Discharged at 9.30am following morning. Had to fast from 6am that day x

12th May..verrrrry excited!! Yeh I probably wont care about eating when the day comes around just didnt want to go ‘all’ day!!

My admission time was 7.30am so i didn’t eat anything since 5pm the night before…i went to theatre at 12.45 and got back to my room at 4.15 and it was around 6pm before they brought me anything to eat so i was 24 hours without food – i was starving xx

I was overnight – admission time was 10am. (Found out when I arrived at Highgate it was really supposed to the 12). Had a bit of a wait, but with nurses, surgeons etc coming and going it went quick!! Not sure when I went into theatre, but know I woke up from my GA at 1.15pm. I had tea and toast pretty soon after,…maybe around 2pm?? I felt fabber though

Was discharged at 9.30-10am the following morning, had a 10 minute wait for meds and then I was off home. I would recommend the overnight to anyone that dont live ‘local’ – at least you get looked after and checked on throughout the afternoon/evening.
