I had a LTKR on July 9th. I was scheduled for a teeth cleaning on Sept 4, but the nurse at the surgeon's office wants me to wait until three months post-op. I get that and that is fine because I do not like getting my teeth cleaned and also I don't want to introduce any infection. Today I cancelled the appointment.
So...later today I saw our family doctor about a cyst on my back. I am starting antibiotics, as it is infected. We decided to make a dermatologist appointment, thinking it would take at least a month, in case it needs to be cut out. But they called back and the dermatologist has a cancellation on Monday.
So.....given that it is already infected, do I go ahead and have it removed on Monday if the doc wants to? I am also scheduled for a RTKR in early Oct.
I will call to see what the OS says tomorrow. But I'm just wondering what folks think.
