Hi Britt, welcome to BariatricPal.

It's perfectly normal to be nervous and excited before surgery. It is an unknown since you have not had surgery, I'm sure you are worried about how much pain you will experience, and might have doubts if it will work for you. I know I had these. I got four hours of sleep the night before my surgery. You will probably get plenty of sleep tomorrow after surgery.

Good luck with your surgery, and please let us know how you are doing. You might want to go into your profile and change your surgery type to sleeve. That way you will get topics related to your surgery type. You are currently showing as a lapband patient.

If you have any questions on how to change your surgery, please let me know..

Thank you! I originally went in for the lap-band and had never even heard about the sleeve! But Im very happy about changing my decision!

Don't worry about not getting sleep. You'll be plenty sleepy post -op. Plus being tired and sleepy before might help curb some of the jitters.

Ok thanks!

Lol I'll guide you on the top of the page you will see your picture.. Click it and in the drop down menu will have a "patient profile" click that and it will bring you to the page to change it :)

Let me know of it works if not I'll have someone do it for you :)
