Hey everyone 

So I am finally having my practical Nurse apt and hopefully this is my last apt before I can get a date pending sleep study results of course. What exactly will happen at this apt? I know our orientation guide inside out will it be more questions about the surgery or is this apt more focused on medications and health issues pre and post op? This has been such a long process already I really don't want anymore delays so aby helpful info would be greatly appreciated. 

Thanks Amanda

Hi Amanda, 

The nurse appt. is basically what you were thinking.  They talk about your medical history, medications and talk about the vitamins you will need post op.  Nothing to stress over.  

The process is a long one, and it always feels great to be at the end of the appts.  I am also through HRRH, with my surgery being in March 2016 with Dr. Starr.  

Good luck at your appt.
