Default Any advice on exercise/diet BEFORE cervical surgery?

I'm still not scheduled yet...trying to hold out as long as possible. I do a modest routine of exercise and traction that I learned from PT. The strengthening of my back and neck definitely helps. Does anyone have any advice on pre-op exercises and diet that can improve one's outcome in recovery from cervical surgery?
