I am planning for my own surgery and consulted about anesthsia to my doctor, Dr. Nilesh A. Patel at Texas Bariatric Specialists in Corpus Christi, Texas. He explained to me all the pros and cons of the life-changing procedure.

Honestly, I...Thank you for sharing your experience. Honestly, I've only had surgery once in my life and I was 7, so I've never really thought about it, but the book makes so much sense. During the tour, a number of mothers will be hosting this book and I really wanted to reach all people, but families too - to help them plan for their children. Dr Dhar makes great points about many things including the differences and additional concerns for young children going into surgery. We plan for many things in life and your experience shows why it is important to plan ahead. The book is available all over the internet and I highly recommend buying a copy and read it. <BR/><BR/>Nikki LeighNikki Leighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00985309338453728557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7610315916146710519.post-35348211924707972082009-02-16T10:01:00.000-05:002009-02-16T10:01:00.000-05:00Hi CherylThank you very much for sharing this impo...Hi Cheryl<BR/><BR/>Thank you very much for sharing this important information with your blog readers.

The book is written in plain language and there are many illustrations, photos and a glossary of terms. <BR/><BR/>Our family found that sadly, the time most people meet the anesthesia or "pain team" is when they are naked, under a hospital gown, being wheeled on a gurney to the surgery. This is not a time when one is thinking clearly of questions or about information to tell the anesthesiologist that can make their outcome optimum. For example, a friend of ours drank a bottle of wine the night before her surgery because she was anxious. No one asked and she didn't think to tell. Well, the alcohol made her dehydrated and, while SHE came through safely, it did take longer for her to "come back." <BR/>The think we thought was the most valuable was a recap of "Panch" lines at the end of each chapter and actual space for one to write in questions and concerns so the book could be taken along to the surgeon and anestheshiologist.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
