We suggest that you eat lightly for the first 24 hours after your procedure. Be sure to follow any specific post-operative instructions your physician gives you regarding diet, rest, activities and medication. The surgery center will provide you with a written summary of these instructions. In addition, a member of our staff will call you the day after surgery to see how you are doing.
Dizziness and nausea are normal after receiving anesthetic; therefore, you should wait 24 hours after returning home before:
driving or operating equipment
signing important papers
making significant decisions
drinking alcoholic beverages
If you have questions or concerns, please call your surgeon.

As difficult as that sounds, a little planning goes a long way, according to the American Diabetes Association. Find out more about diabetes by clicking on any of the following links.
