They will take your weight, height ect, your blood pressure. They may take blood aswell, although they didnt take blood from me. They ask you questions about your medical history and also explain what happens the day of your ba. Whta you can and cant do no lotions ect. xx

Yup, they will go through your medical history, check your height and weight to ensure your BMI is OK and if felt needed will conduct any pre-op tests they feel necessary before your op - not everyone needs to have any tests done, some just a few and some lots. You'll also possibly have your pre-op pics taken and will be advised on your post-op care. xxx
