Hi there! I had my first appointment on Thursday and I'm wondering all the same things you are!
My insurance only requires 3 months of pre-op care so I could have the surgery as early as June. I was 100% for it when I left the office Thursday but last night I was hit with crippling fear. Mainly your fears 3,4&7.
My husband is supportive and enthusiastic I'm just nervous I guess. I've never had a surgery before and I feel like I'm electing to have surgery and open my self up to future complications. (Ignoring that being obese for the rest of my life has its own set of complications!)
5'5" 294lbs
good luck!
