What happens at pre op?

Hi girls im just wondering what actually happens at your pre-op! Xxx

i have gathered on here they take swabs/weight blood pressure etc just a regular check not sure if you need doctors letters to say your healthy too x

Hey lovely,

The nurse justs asks u medical questions, takes photos of ur breast and does an mrsa swab which is in ur nose and armpit! If ur bmi is low u will need a blood test to xx

Thanks girls, i have mine next week then hopefully if everything goes to plan have my op on 2nd dec so excited!!! Xxx

Oh that’s soon isn’t it let me know how u get on mines 22nd xx

I’ve got my pre op tomorrow morning and op 2nd Dec, more excited than a big bag of excited things!! X

Aj how did your pre op go? I have mine on 24th also having surgery on 2nd dec!!! Have you got an admission time yet? I cant believe how close it is so excited dont actualu think its sunk in xx

Lisa, pre op went well, she took my blood pressure, height, weight, talked me through what to do prior to coming in, which for me is to drink loads of water and get some compression stocking as I’ll just have been on a long haul flight so she said get them to avoid DVT.

I got loads of paperwork, directions to the hospital and how to avoid infections and stuff. She e mailed me a care plan too which I’ve not read yet. I got the chance to re try the sizers again because I’m so undecided!!!! Haha.

Admission times will be e mailed or texted over 2days prior to the op 🙂

Are you having yours in Preston? If so we’ll be in there together!!! I am only very excited now and yeah feels weird having not long booked it, I’m sure it will sink in on the day :))) xxx
