Guest guest Posted October 1, 2000 Report Share Posted October 1, 2000 Debbie, I had mine done the week before I was scheduled for surgery. Just wanted everything to be done and over except for the surgery. Besides, you would hate to get there and then have an irregular heartbeat or something. Good Luck!

Guest guest Posted October 1, 2000 Report Share Posted October 1, 2000 Debbie-- The important thing on the ekg is that is cannot be done more than 30 days in advance of your surgery date. I had mine done by my local doctor 2 weeks pre-op, then hand-carried the results with me to Raleigh-Durham. As far as having it done at the hospital, I don't have any information. Sorry. Hope this helps! Good luck and God bless! Dawn Jester Wichita, Kansas MGB 8/9/00 30 pounds gone forever! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
