Typically, before a surgery, you will have a pre-op visit where you will have some tests to determine if your body can endure the surgery. You should have also received paperwork from your surgeon advising you what needs to be done prior to surgery such as fasting, what type of clothing to bring, and how long to be prepared to stay in the hospital.
