Yes. I’m supposed to have outpatient surgery on my back next week. Will probably have to reschedule in hospital because the procedure requires general anesthesia and I will have to be on my stomach for about an hour. Anesthesiologist is worried about respiratory problems during the surgery & recovery. Awaiting advice from surgeon. I’m not on 02 or having any significant SOB but better safe than sorry . I would accept your dr’s advice.

Yes I am going with the doctor who does them at the hospital. They just want to have the hospital facilities if they shouldn’t need them. I get that. But it was surprising as I am not on oxygen or have any SOB issues either.
