Felicity, I am having the exact same issues.My surgery date is March 19. I have been having nightmares and panic attacks at times. I know this is something I have wanted for a long time, and I mentally know the chances of things going wrong are really low, but just the idea of having this surgery is emotionally exhausting me. I have the same concerns that I will not handle the pain well or I will find out that I am a big baby. Lol. I am really trying to spend time just coming to terms with all the angles of this surgery. I feel like maybe it is a good thing to go through this phase of uncertainty and fear because it does lead us to think about things on a deeper level. I just wish I had realized how emotionally draining preparing for this surgery can be. From all the hoops that many of us have to jump through to get our insurance to pay ,to preparing our families and friends, and last but not least ourselves, I must say it is an emotional deal. I wish you strength and clarity and I look forward to helping each other through this monumental time in our lives.
