So the nerves are hitting me now

[******** 397]

Surgery is tomorrow at 1 and the nerves are finally hitting me..I just threw up and I can't stop crying because I'm scared. I know I am doing the right thing I am just scared of the risk of complication. I know that sounds silly but it does happen...I just need words of encouragement.

Deeps breaths... You know you are doing this to lower your risks for the long term. I know it's scary but it really will be over with before you know it.

Time passes so fast post op! I'll be 3 wks post op tomorrow and I feel good. First few days aren't the greatest, but they give you drugs to sleep most of the worst off. You'll be okay!! Try to get a good nights sleep - use some melatonin if you have it!

I was a hot mess the night before surgery too! The good news is the people who are on your care team chose this as their profession and they know their jobs inside and out and if there are any complications, you're already in the right place! Long term complications with the sleeve are minimal and manageable. However, this is a HUGE step and the lifestyle adjustment is a big one. The first few days are rough, but they pass quickly and before you know it, you'll be stepping on the scale and realizing you just lost 8 or 10 pounds-in a week. Nothing tastes better than success! You are doing a wonderful thing for yourself. And we are all here for you, just a click or two away! Good luck!

Awwww I can not blame you, I too am petrified, I dont go till june, it would be nice if the docs give you something to relax the night before, because you know your not gonna sleep tonight. I wish you an easy smooth time tomoro, may your surgery be textbook and your recouperation quick. Please keep us posted.

if you didnt have nerves i would be worried but....3 months out and i can say it was very easy for me. sleevers have the least complication issues...you get good meds in the hospital. i was walking within a few hours of waking up. i am barely 3 months out and i am almost 50 lbs lighter and my life is changing so quickly in so many GREAT ways. as soon as you get that IV in you wont remember anything and the hospital will pass in a blur and you will be home again. chin up your head is going thru worst case...mine did too. you will be fine and most likely be with or around 2 to 5 others who had same procedure to tallk with while in hospital i did:) GL to u
