You may experience some stomach
upset from the anesthetic, so you may want to have clear liquid (soup or
Jell-O) before trying to eat solid foods.
Someone will need to drive you
home following surgery. You should not operate a car or other heavy machinery
until your doctor has given the OK.
Avoid strenuous activities.
Activities should be limited to those approved by your doctor.
Because the residual effects
of your anesthesia, and some medication you may be taking for pain, can
affect your memory and judgement, you should avoid making important decisions
until you no longer require prescribed pain medicine.
