Surgery in 3 days and i am nervous



Recommended Posts

I will be banded on monday November 24th and I am really starting to get nervous. I feel like a kid waiting for christmas day to get here. It is all I can think about. I am even having a hard time sleeping at night and my stomach is constantly roaring. I am very excited to start my new journey.:drool:

I will post after surgery to let everyone know how things went.

Good luck!

I am 3 days post-op and I felt the same exact way. I was just ready to get going. The night before I got super nervous. Kind of like "why on earth am I doing this" but my husband and friends kept me focused and now I'm in bandlandia.

Keep up the good work and let us all know how you did after surgery.:drool:

I am almost two weeks post op and was the same way. I did everything from get a massage to take long aromatic bathes to get my mind off of it. I finally just got out of the house and saturated myself of other things. That was the only thing that worked.

I was packed WEEKS before my surgery!:)

I remember how I was in the last few days prior to my surgery. It is such an exciting time! You are both nervous about the surgery part, and excited to finally be starting your new life. Before you know it, you will be an official bandster and on your way. Let us know how everything goes.

      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.
