To be sure, you should really ask the doctor, however… Just in case you can’t ask, I would personally recommend NOT taking the Lunesta tonight. I take Lunesta also, and I know it’s not supposed to be mixed with benzo-diazepene medications or any other meds that make you sleepy. So because you will probably be having some anesthesia, I would say DON’T take the Lunesta tonight because it could react badly with your anesthesia that they give you for the surgery. Good luck!
