Hello,

my child is due to have a minor operation next week but it is with general anaesthetic.
they are mid way through a big course of antibiotics for strep.
any one know the likelihood of the op being cancelled?

No sorry. Can you ring them on Monday?

If the surgery is not urgent and he has a throat infection I would think it would be cancelled. I would definitely call on Mon to discuss.

Will most likely be cancelled.
Hope he gets well soon.

They won’t do scheduled surgeries if a child is on antibiotics ☹️I’m sorry x

Thanks everyone. So frustrating that he’s poorly, I’ll call on Monday.
