Varicose vein surgery?



I am having varicose vein surgery and wanted to know the following:
What are the pre-op tests I will be sent for?
When sedated with a general will a tube be put down my throat?
Are you catherized?
Do they shave your leg or do you do it prior to checking in?

these are all pertinent questions, you need to ask them of your surgeon. Each facility does these things in different ways, and no two doctors follow the same procedures, so ask your surgeon, or his office. Source(s): RN
