<p>I'm starting to freak out.
I go for my gallbladder removal in 2 weeks and I'm still coughing up a LOT of crap in the mornings. During the day my coughs are getting less and less, but the morning I gag and gag from all the yucky stuff. I go for my pre-surgical appointment today but i'm scared to tell them that I have a cold in case they cancel my surgery and put my back on the 2-3 month wait list. I can tell my lung function isn't up to par because I get winded going up a flight of stairs in the morning, but by afternoon I am generally ok. How much time should I feel 100% better before going under general anesthetic?</p>
