Asked By:gaecmomma in Phx

I have been using phentermine about 12mo now and am going in for breast Aug in 6 days. My last dose of phentermine was yesterday at 2pm.37.5 mg tablet. Is this enough time for it to exit my system and safely be under anesthesia? I've read so many mixed opinions on this. I'm 5'6 around 150lb
