traycrow83 18 Posted March 12, 2013 So up until now I was fine. Surgery is this Thursday the 14th and im soooooo scared. I dont wanna be in pain. Plus I hate pain meds and the way they make me feel. I also have an anxiety disorder and im freaking myself out. I keep thinking the worst possible senarios. Anyone else having doubts? Someone please tell me its not as bad as people say it is so I can get through this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ms skinniness 3,003 Posted March 12, 2013 It's really not that bad. Just had my GB taken out yesterday am and I'm feeling really good. I was very happy I had my morphine drip for the first 2 days. It helped me sleep. Came home the 3rd AM and didn't really need it anymore. . Actually the surgeries were the best sleep ever. . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

michelleooo513 245 Posted March 12, 2013 ... just to give you some hope. I had my sleeve and gallbladder surgery at the same time. First day in the hospital I used the drip a couple of times... 2nd day I used it twice. I went gome that day and havnt used any pain meds since the hospital. No pain.. nothing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ktishernamo 10 Posted March 12, 2013 So up until now I was fine. Surgery is this Thursday the 14th and im soooooo scared. I dont wanna be in pain. Plus I hate pain meds and the way they make me feel. I also have an anxiety disorder and im freaking myself out. I keep thinking the worst possible senarios. Anyone else having doubts? Someone please tell me its not as bad as people say it is so I can get through this. I was also sleeved on a Wednesday and by Friday evening was off of pain meds. I'm not going to lie or sugarcoat it you will be sore BUT the more you move around the better you will feel! I was sleeved on Wednesday and out and about on Saturday (still a bit sore though). It'll be worth it though! I was sleeved on feb. 27, started liquids feb. 18 and have lost 37 lbs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AUNM 3 Posted March 13, 2013 My surgery is tomorrow and I also have an anxiety disorder and am really nervous. I think," what am I doing"? Just got to try and be positive and pray, pray, pray, that everything will go okay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigFatLoser 331 Posted March 13, 2013 My surgery is also tomorrow. Saying goodbye to eating as I have known it has been very difficult for me. Not so scared of pain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
