6 weeks before surgery, you should stop smoking, or quit it for good. This reduces the risk of post-operative complications. 

 3 months before surgery, you should stop taking steroids and immunosuppressants. Within 2 weeks, you should stop taking medications that affect blood clotting. 

For 2-3 months before surgery, you need to increase physical activity and switch to the right diet. Eliminate caffeine drinks a month before the operation. Weight loss and reduced blood sugar increase the chances of successful surgery.

 Before the operation, you can make an appointment for individual counseling with a psychologist.

There, you can talk to people who have faced the same difficulties and were able to solve them.
