I had chest pain. Can I get anesthesia for facelift surgery?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

On review of the echocardiogram (echo) and the stress test (attachment removed to protect patient identity) it appears that you should be fine going through the surgery.

However, I do not have your blood work. Usually the surgeons would like to have it within 30 days prior to the procedure.

• Other important questions would be any anesthetic complications in the past?

• Do you have any blood transfusion related issue?

• Are you suffering from any lung problems related to smoking?

• Do you have a history of anemia, shortness of breath, etc?

• Did you get any chest pain after the stress test?

• Do you have a history of stroke, abnormal heartbeats or abnormal heart rhythm?

• Do you have a family history of hypertension, kidney problems, diabetes or peripheral vascular disease?

If answers to all these questions are no, then you are at low risk for facelift surgery. Good luck for the surgery.
