Last summer, when I awoke from general anesthesia following a non-scoli surgery, I was extremely nauseous. Looking back, I think the culprit may have been a larger-than-usual dinner the night before. My husband and I went out to eat, and you know the tendency to eat more than you should at a nice place!
I’m thinking of having a peanut butter and jelly sandwich at lunchtime the day before my surgery next week and not eating dinner! I don’t want a repeat!
Also, the pre-op instructions say nothing by mouth after midnight, but I did read on one website: nothing by mouth after 5 p.m. for a morning surgery.
Any advice?
Best,
Brenda
