Surgery date at last

Got my appointment for a cystoscopy and urethral dilation after a 7 month wait. Feeling scared about the general anaesthetic because I’ve been unwell after GA in the past. Any tips for recovery from people out there who have had this procedure? Having to soak off all my gel nails which are quite new also. Adds to the anxiety. 😣

I've had the procedure and can promise you that recovery is a doddle...or at least it was for me. It's a minor procedure so I guess the GA is minimal. I had no after effects. Good luck :)
