Pre Op

[berniec 166]

Hello everyone. I just came across this site and it is so informative. Thank you all for the info. I'm scheduled to have my bypass surgery on April 23, 2012. I'm excited and scared at the same time. My surgeon and therapist says that's normal. I have thought about this for 2 years. I finally decided it was time. My health issues really persuaded me to go through with it. I have sleep apnea, high blood pressure and asthma. My current weight is 297 pounds. Thanks again and I will keep updating.

Hi, my op is on the 16 April - i think that if you were not nervous there would be a problem - good luck

Yep I agree my dr said its completely normal to be scared and he actually told me if I was 100% ready and I could tell him I wanted surgery that day he said he wouldn't do my surgery because being scared, anxious, nervous those are all normal for going through a huge surgery like this!

Thanks ladies. Good luck to you too. I just had my last cardiologist appt. today. I'm finally done with all of the test. I have an appt. with my surgeon on march 27th to confirm my surgery date . Yayyy,
