Duas needed!

[slm] my dear brothers and sisters

Pray you are all in the best of health and in a state of ever-increasing eeman, Ameen.

This is going to sound really silly and trivial, but inshaAllah Monday morning I have a surgery date to have my tonsils removed.  Silly and trivial because it's a minor operation, but I've never been in hospital let alone poked with a huge needle to knock me out  ??? so inshaAllah all duas will be appreciated!

Also, the issue of keeping covered....how do sisters do it?  I mean donning a surgical gown is icky enough, but keeping hair covered if possible...any thoughts?

JazakumAllah khairan!

Wa'alaikum Assalam wa Rahmatullah,

          May Allah make it easy for you (Ameen). Tonsillectomy (Procedure to remove tonsils) is hardly a 30 minute surgery. I forgot if they do it under general anesthesia or local anesthesia. I guess they do it under general anesthesia, so you'll be sound asleep while the surgery goes on.

        A general rule for any surgery is to expose only that part of human body that needs to be operated on, the rest is almost always covered. I think they should let u cover your hair with a surgical cap. There is no harm in talking to the doctor about that and requesting to let u wear a surgical cap. Btw, as far as I know, from religious point of view, you are allowed to expose in front of a doctor, if there is no alternative. But, better check the details on that, in case there are any conditions to be fulfilled before you are allowed to expose what should normally be covered.

WAllahu Ta'ala A'lam.

Wassalamu 'alaikum.

JazakAllah khairan dear brother for your response.  Yep it'll be a general anathestic inshaAllah...I was thinking of requesting a surgical cap which I assumed they would require me to wear anyways seeing as they need to access the mouth/throat region.

Ameen to your duas!!

Sister Nisa may Allah make your surgery successful and bless you with his mercy. And Inshallah we see you back on the board soon.

It's really scary for some people particularly if they are going through such experience first time in their life. But I think removing tonsils is not a big deal even kids go through such operation successfully. May be our some doctor brothers or sisters on the board can through some more light on it?
