It is often useful to write down questions before a surgical consultation. Common ones include: what are the alternatives to surgery, how long will recovery take, what activities should I avoid afterwards, and what are the risks. There are no wrong questions. Understanding the plan makes it easier to weigh up the decision and prepare well.
