I'm from NC and I also e-mailed Dr. R the other day about the tests, his answer to me was that I had to have the EKG and blood work done before the operation. But here's my confusion, say I have the blood work done June 30 and send my package in what if it's 40 days later when they schedule surgery? What do you do then, have it done over at the hospital? I know this surgery is worth it, but gosh sometimes it gets so confusing. April >> I hurt my foot two days before surgery and Dr. R. canceled me since he will be gone I will not be able to have surgery until July 14 - it is my understanding that the tests are only good for 30 days so I will probably have to redo them. Dr. R's office said it is up to the anethesioligist and not Dr. R. Busching Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
