Normal to be nervous??

[bandongal 0]

:confused:how many were/are nervous about getting your band. At times -especially at night, I am even having doubts. Is this normal since my date is coming soon(the 26th)? Mostly I am at ease but those anxieties sure are discomforting:eek: thanks for any feedback or reassurance:smile:

Yes it is totally normal to be nervous. I was concerned about the anesthesia, and after having a blood clot (mini stroke) last year I was worried about another blood clot. I came through the surgery really well. Surgery was afternoon Thursday 8/12 stayed over night in the hospital went home 2:00 PM Friday. My mother is staying with me. Sat afternoon we went out to a couple stores so I did about 15 minutes of walking per store. I am on liquid Tylenol and only have pain when I get up after laying flat. So far I have not had the gas pains in the shoulder that others mention. From the surgery itself/protein diet I am very gassy. I am having a reaction from the tape they used to hold my bust out of the way. I put some cream on it which seems to be helping.

It seems to me generally nervous is quite the norm. For me-I even posted about it-I am Wacky nervous! I feel like I have multiple personalities the way I go from SO excited to "What in the &!@?# am I doing!?

BTW-I am also getting banded the 26th:)

I just keeping thing of all the dangers of being overweight and know this is the right choice for me. I have also made a point of finding lots of positive posts.

Hang in there!
