  • What should you not do before general anesthesia?

    That depends on your health status. But typically, general anesthesia in healthy 26-year-old male does not require any special preparation with exclusion of fasting requirements (NPO or nothing per mouth) and stopping/continuation of medication/supplements/herbal medications taken by patient. If you are healthy individual and surgery does not require pre-operative assessment a few days before surgery, then expect to receive a call from hospital nurse 24-48 hours before with all instructions regarding fasting requirements and medications. If you need pre-operative assessment, then during that visit the patient receives all necessary instructions. If any questions arise, please do not hesitate and call your surgeon's team and ask questions. Wes Prokop READ MORE
