Guest guest Posted March 7, 2004 Report Share Posted March 7, 2004 Barbara, Not being sedated for the blocks??? YIKES!!! No thanks! lol Especially not for the SGB! I'd faint at the first sign of that needle coming towards my neck!! As for the sedation....I usually drink whatever I want up to an hour before, myself. I will either drink water, or pop...but if I do drink pop, I really baby that can! i've never had any problems doing this, thankfully. I was told by the Doctor in Chicago, that drinking water up to the last 2-3 hours before wouldn't affect anything....so, I've always done it. As for eating...won't be that brave though! Luckily, I don't eat much anyways....but, during those 8 hour drives, with the block being done as soon as we got there.....now that was tough! Gene would have to stop and get something for breakfast or the like, and he hated having to eat in front of me....but I always made him. Luckily, now, I don't have to worry! I don't have to go any longer than 4 hours without at least a liquid breakfast....
