Guest guest Posted October 9, 2000 Report Share Posted October 9, 2000 Just wanted to let you girls know about nail polish. I have acrylic on my nails (all the nurses commented on how nice they are - I guess I will have to tip my manicurist the next time I go). Anyway, I had them polished before I left home knowing that I would probably have to remove one nail at least. As the nurse wheeled me to preop she asked about whether I had removed one nail and I said no. She asked if they were acrylic and I said yes. That was the last that was discussed about it. I'm sure they had a pulse ox (measuring oxygen levels) on me during surgery and several times before I left the hospital someone from respiratory therapy came in, put the little thing on my finger, said I was fine and left. I would have taken the polish off but was glad I didn't have to - hate to mess up a good manicure after all! on MGB - 10/04/00 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
