Scheduled my nose surgery & I need a pre-op CBC & EKG. Why does that make me nervous?

[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 556598, member: 84"] The cbc is to make sure you're not coming down with a bug and to make sure your clotting will be fine. (if you're slightly anemic you might have some trouble clotting.....gives them a heads up to watch for it) EKG is probably the doctor is just being careful due to your age, perhaps family history. Can't say I ever had one as a pre op thing before. It will be fine. Fred had his deviated septum repaired and other than sounding funny when he talked and keeping ahead of the pain (head pain blows big time), he did just fine. As for your rusty water issue, let it run a bit.......that might be all it needs. Hugs [/QUOTE]
