Guest guest Posted February 2, 2007 Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 , that is normal for a sugeon to want you to stop any imunnosuppressent prior to surgery. When I had surgery to repair a torn tendon in my ankle, my surgen said to stop my drugs with exception of the pain meds. Of course, I talked with my rheumy first. We decided, based on my history, that maintaining my meds was the better choice. But, normally you do have to stop them. I will keep you in my prayers. Is your surgery scheduled for Wed? I will keep you in my prayers. Good luck with the surgery...Gentle hugs and a lot of luv, Marina > > WELL I CALLED MY RHEUMY TO FILL HER IN AND SHE'S GONE TILL MONDAY BUT LEFT > INSTRUCTIOS THAT I STOP ALL MEDS EXCEPT FOR PAIN TILL SURGERY IS DONE > <SIGH> MORE GOOD NEWS HUH...
