My surgery date is scheduled as August 12. As it gets closer I am getting more nervous. Figured I would join and see how others are dealing with the nervousness. I was fine until taking a nutrition class as the center where I am having the surgery. A lady was in there who was close to a month out and was having trouble finding things to eat. She said she often feels like stuff is stuck in her pouch and then has to throw up in order to feel better. This part scares me.
