Reta before surgery

[Infernalmango]

They won't tell the difference at all from GH/tb/bpc in the OR. I'd continue those as well. Holding off on the reta is a good idea, especially if you have the RHR issues some get which could cause problems for your anesthesiologist. But also don't tell them you're on reta or any other unapproved "research chemicals" - it'll go in your chart you take street drugs and could cause insurance issues for you in the future - just say sema or tirz, which you definitely have a prescription for.


Shit, you ain't fastin until you're barely squeezing out a teaspoon of black tar once a week.

Yeah I told them I was on tirz lol. I also made very clear this information was not to go into my general medical chart and was strictly for the anesthesiologist. From the beginning it felt like not a good idea to mention I’m on illegally purchased drugs from ugls lmao

You don't even need a toilet for that. Just change your underwear and keep going.

Bad advice

Not eating before surgery is bad advice? According to ghoul's link it's a non issue

• New guidelines suggest that most patients taking GLP‑1 medications (such as Ozempic or Wegovy) do not need to stop them before surgery, despite previous caution. This is based on a review of 35 studies involving over 714,000 patients, which found no increased risk of aspiration when the medications were continued .

In other words you are a pussy.

Clever of you to only address that part of your post. You do you, boo.

If you want to see a puzzy, look in the mirror.

The rest of my post wasn't advice to anyone. I was stating what I did personally.

a friend of mine had surgery and was told to stop tirz 1 month in advance. Something about food being backed up in the gut.
