Cold!
With four days to go before my surgery, I woke up with a sore throat and congestion today! I definitely have a virus of some sort. Aaargh.
I'll call doc for advice, but would love to hear from Sisters, if anyone has been through this. Is this likely to foul everything up or make me considerable more uncomfortable post-surgically?
I don't take echinacea or anything like that, so that's not a worry.

I would say wait till you talk to your doc to take anything. I just had a cold last week and surgery this Monday, as for my doc, he told me I can take anything I want up to 48 hours before the surgery. Then I shouldnt take anything after that.

(((Ellen))),
It is good you called your dr. Sometimes this causes surgeries to be rescheduled - sometimes not. It depends on your symptoms, your dr, etc.
Always best to err on the side of caution!
Good luck to you & take good care of yourself!
