Total Dilemma!

[Frances144]

I was sent some lovely medicinal chocolates that must have pre-op and post-op healing properties.

Typed on a piece of paper taped to the lid are the words (and because it is typed, it must be official) :-

Dosage
One to be taken daily prior to surgery
One to be taken daily after surgery
This medication to be consumed by patient only.

Well, obviously, I must obey orders from the prescriber but, and here is my dilemma, I don't have my operation date yet.  So do I start eating them as I am in pre-op status or do I wait until I have the date from the surgeon and then start eating them?

Answers on a postcard please!

Sorry, Frances, I don't have a postcard, but I reckon chocolates are good anytime for whatever might ail you.

Anyway, they sure would work for me!

Best of luck with your upcoming surgery.

You sure have a lot of people here rooting for you!

I'd start enjoying them now since you may be put on a restricted diet just before and after your surgery.

It is well known that chocolate is not only a health food but one of the basic food groups.   Enjoy them at any time possible and good luck with your surgery!
