8/14 is the Big Day! Feeling very nervous



Recommended Posts

Is it normal to feel nervous, sad and irritable? Also, My surgeon didnt tell me to do a liquid diet just not to eat after midnight before surgery. However, I did the liquids going on 2 days. I'm just all over the place.....????

@@beingfree Normal! I kept telling my husband "let's just walk out, I'm sure people do it all the time" on surgery day. I felt like that right up until they knocked my butt out, which was on the sly might I add. No warning....probably a good thing. Just hang in there it's worth it!

I think its natural to be nervous and anxious, it's a huge decision to make but for me it was the best decision ever.

Best wishes fr tomorrow and a speedy recovery ! :D

You can do it. The decision to have WLS isn't something you did haphazardly. You researched it, prepared for it and now you are ready!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
