Approval Scares Me

[SkinnyOnMe 81]

I just got approved and I am soooo scared. Before the approval there was nothing but excitement from my first appointment 9/30/11. I think that I honestly thought I wouldn't get approved because I'm 26 and 248. However, they approved me very qucikly and my surgery is the 25th. All I keep thinking about is.... what if something happens to me? I am too young to die. I have a 1 year old son.... what if something goes wrong???? Maybe I am just having thoughts like this because I buried my grandmother yesterday and my boss died last week, but what are the statistics? What are my chances? Am I willing to die for this? Am I crazy because I am going through trauma in my life?

I don't have my surgery date yet but I'm self pay and I am conserned about some to the same things too. I think everyone before surgery goes through this! It's scary and there are alot of what ifs....

I'm sure you will do fine though and be so happy your went through with it. Good Luck!

I agree with Lisa that everyone having some kind of surgery gets nervous and thinks "what if". I am having surgery on the 26th and I can't say those things haven't run through my mind too. Just say positive and honestly, I have found that reviewing this site has helped me quite a bit. Hearing everyone success stories, ideas and dos and don'ts has been really informative. Good luck to you.
