I registered with the hospital on the phone today...and was later called with pre-surgery instructions:
-They will call tomorrow with the actual time that I need to be at the hospital on Thursday
-Stop taking my fish oil
-Do not eat or drink after midnight (no gum, candy, mints, ice chips...) I can brush my teeth in the morning, but only swish and spit
-They told me where to arrive at the hospital with my photo ID and insurance card
-I can't wear any jewler
-Wear loose clothing you can take off easily and put on when you leave to go home
-Wash the night before or that morning with an anti-bacterial soap
-only 2 adults with you and no small children
