Pre-op Testing
Hi Ksses,
I'm pretty sure that you will need to have at least some of the pre-op tests run again, since it will have been about 2 months since the earlier ones. Why don't you call your doctor's office tomorrow morning and ask - they should be able to find out and tell you.
Let us know what you find out, please.

Pre-op Testing
Hi Again,
I just realized that you don't have your surgery date in your profile, and for some reason I was thinking October was a LONG time from now brain, I guess. Please be sure to enter it so we can send you good wishes on your castle date. My pre-op consisted of blood work, an EKG and a chest X-ray. I don't think there was anything else, except for a fleet's enema the night before.

Yes, you probably will have to have it done again. I had several minor surgeries this summer and also my hyst. Each time I was told (by different hospitals) that if it was more than 1 month since tests, they would need to be redone. Not what you wanted to hear, I'm sure.
Good luck!
