Physical and pre-op testing

I went to the hospital yesterday to get a physical to get a medical clearance in order to have surgery. They took some blood and a urine sample and a chest x-ray. Everything came back good! Apparently I am a little dehydrated. That is because I now have a cold. I have been trying to do nothing but rest because my doctor said that they would not put me under if I have cough because it is not good for my lungs. I have never panicked this much over a cold before. Neither has my family.

I have started counting down the days till the surgery. What seemed so far away a few weeks ago now seems way too soon. I guess you could say that I am getting anxious.
