T-1 day. What next?
« on: September 10, 2012, 05:50:29 AM »
I shouldn't have asked. Woke up this morning at 2 am with a blazing migraine! My wife gave me an ice pack for my head as I can't take

 any pain meds this close to surgery. After rolling around in pain for an hour I succumbed to taking my migraine meds. Have to call the

nurse today and let her know. Hope that's not a deal breaker. The good thing is, generally when things start really rough for me their

 outcome is successful!

What did you take for the migrain?  Make sure you tell them.  I hope it doesn't affect your surgery, but if it does then they will just reschedule it.  It will all work out.

Good luck today.

Thanks,

Wow, creepy similarities. I had a unbelievable headache Saturday night to where I had to take Tylenol. It helped tremendously, but I'm not sure how taking Tylenol a week before surgery will go over with the doc. I've read online though that plain tylenol before surgery is ok.

It is... Right ?

Hoyt, hope everything is going well!

Box and Hoyt - Tylenol is what you will be taking for pain post-op, with a few narcotics.  Those narcotics are probabaly very similar to most migraine pain meds, so I think it will be fine.  Always good to ask the doc though.

Good Luck guys.

Good luck, Hoyt!  Check back in when you're out (and hopefully still on the narcotics......always funnier posts that way).
