In A Few Days

My surgery is scheduled for June 7. I'm excited and nervous all rolled up into one. Did anyone else battle their nerves before surgery?

Yeah! You are so close! I can understand your excitement to go on with life- healthier and stronger. I have unfortunately had a series of surgeries this past few years and have found that once I have made it "real" in my mind, the stress goes away, and I actually look forward to getting it over with and look forward to post-op. My jitters would be because of anticipation of actually feeling better- so it's a positive for me. My last knee surgery, I was in so much pain and knew from previous experience, that I would feel so much better once I had it fixed, I couldn't wait to have it done. I don't really know what to expect for this- but I am looking forward to getting my life back!

I am hoping to have my sleeve in September. If I could have it tomorrow, I would. My surgeon requires a 3 month pre-op program. Best of luck on the 7th, don't worry- you will be fine! Please let us know about your experience!

I was a bundle of nerves, but you have worked hard and this is something you will not regret!

Thanks ladies, you all just made my day. I feel so much better. I'll keep you posted.
