lolitawantsaband 45 Posted July 3, 2012 Mine is Tuesday the 3rd, less than 48 hours!!! I'm scared but excited as well, more afraid of the pain after then the actual procedure itself. But some folks say its not to bad. I am so lucky, my friends had a pool party for me yesterday, even though I could not enjoy cocktails with them and stuff from the grill. The overwhemling support they showed me brought tears to my eyes. I am a lucky guy. Today is your Bday, I hope everything went well for you. When you get a chance please give us an update.

canderson04 17 Posted July 4, 2012 Any one getting psychotic on this pre op diet? I am constantly feeling like I am having a panic attack! Cant get interested in anything. Trouble concentrating. I am ready to take the gas pipe. I am with Kathie. I feel the same way. It is affecting my mood. Really moody and anxious. 1 Kathie52 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
