Hi All, would you know if the surgeon would cancel the OP if the patient has a cold? it struck me over night, and the big day is on Friday 4th. Don't even know if allowed some meds, as I've been asked to stop some supplements before surgery. I can't reach anyone, so asking here.

  • Hi  

    Sorry to hear you've come down with a cold a week before your surgery is due. 

    As different hospitals will have different protocols regarding this, your best bet would be to speak to your CNS on Monday. In the meantime you could post in the womb cancer forum to see if anyone there went ahead with surgery whilst having a cold.

    Wishing you all the best
