Scar tissue after knee replacement

Hi
I had my total knee replacement in April last year. My surgery was scheduled for 1730. I was advised that the surgeon preferred to complete quick procedures first.
I was allowed to eat up to 5 hours before the admission time, and 1 hour before admission time was my last drink (water).

Gator1965. I’m currently scheduled for 8:30 am but have been told the same thing .... that the Dr. will probably move me to later since it’s bi-lateral. No one has mentioned being able to eat. I’ll have to check into it. Thanks for the info.
