Shilo30 16 Posted June 5, 2012 First day back at work.... Hurts to sit up in my chair for too long. Gotta suck that up. What really got me to tears is a friend trying to tell me that I can't have gum. WTF!!!!!! Who had the damn surgery???? Who's gone through all the classes and pre op visits???? ME!!!!!! I know what I am allowed to do per my doctor. All she did was sit thru 1 seminar the office puts on to tell people about the procedures that are offered!! Made me so mad!!! I asked her to not tell me what I can and cannot do- that I am sure she was just trying to be thoughtful but I know what I am doing!!!! I came home and cried. :-( Don't know why it upset me so much.

GivingItMyAll 168 Posted June 5, 2012 {{{HUGS}}} I am overly emotional pre-surgery, nervous to think how I may react to people after the surgery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vanb0052 40 Posted June 5, 2012 I'm SO emotional right now too! I'm a week out from surgery (and doesn't help I'm expecting my period in a day or two). I called my best friend yesterday to invite her out to a baseball game on Sunday since I'll be a wreck waiting around all day on Sunday for surgery the next day. She flat out said no...then backtracked with some excuses. It shouldn't have upset me...but it did. I cried on and off for hours. My big annoyance at work was my boss filling up the huge communal candy jar that sits right across from the bathroom I visit 20 times a day with all these damn liquids. Oh well...4 more days of work I hope things start getting easier for you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alliegb3 112 Posted June 5, 2012 Oh, love, it's ok, you just went through a big thing, your body, your hormones are trying to figure out what's going on. I usually say, I'm pretty sure I can have it, but I will check with my NUT that held all my nutrition classes and make sure. Don't worry though, I don't think she'll butt in again since you told her.

DuranFan1969 119 Posted June 5, 2012 Sounds like little miss "you can't have gum" might be a little bit envious of you having a surgery that she hasn't had. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bubblesbgood 29 Posted June 5, 2012 ohhh i bet you R right, the "i dont have the juevos to have the surgery myself but im going to project my horrible self image onto you by making you feel like i have control over you and when you let me have it ill run and hide" syndrome lol Sounds like little miss "you can't have gum" might be a little bit envious of you having a surgery that she hasn't had.

Peaceful 5 Posted June 5, 2012 I cried, I got mad at my boyfriend for stupid things, I think I wanna cry right now- lol Seriously so many emotions going on- I just keep myself busy- looking for new hobbies- it's perfectly normal :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fluffylibra30 323 Posted June 5, 2012 Yeah our emotions are extreme and over the top. Just try not to completely push people away and they will probably forgive you lol. I was a crier anyway, so the first month rocked me. Oh and as long as you don't swallow the gum it is ok. The worry is blockage. After my stomach was healed I started chewing again. I chew sugar free orbit bubble mint. Everyday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
