Guest guest Posted May 28, 2010 Report Share Posted May 28, 2010 , Here's a direct link to our Archives about anesthesia. /msearch?query=anesthesia & charset=wind\ ows-1252 Also read through our Files on Anesthesia. Just click on " Files " , scroll to " Anesthesics and CMT " , click to open the folder and you'll be able to access the articles. Best to meet with the anesthesiologist 1 week prior, take a list of the Medications Alert and tell him/her you have peripheral neuropathy from CMT disease. For peace of mind, ask if you will be given a pre-op antibiotic. (I think this is standard, but good idea to ask anyway) This is what I've done. And I write down the names of all the meds I am going to be given. Gretchen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
