Pain

I am scared that I will hurt....does that sound funny.... I know that I will hurt... and I know pain... But I am so excited for surgery... I just don't wanna hurt.....I am calm and all I hope that I am not alone.....

When did you turn into such a wuss? You'll "experience some discomfort", but what a pay-off. Don't freak out now, Crystal-lite. Your too close and you've come too far. We're all gonna be just fine. DD

Ohh yeah me a wuss.....lmao 2 kids no pain meds 19 and 24 hours of labor of push breathe push breathe.... I am far from a wuss.....NOW MAYBE A BABY>......but no wuss....lmao.....Just fear of pain that is all. I had 2 surgeries back to back and I think I know what it is going to be like....SORRY I LET MY MIND WORK TOO MUCH>>......come on heart kick in .....

Crystal-lite, I apologize for my sarcasm. I was just trying to talk you down in my own, twisted, feeble manner. Forgive me? The best things in life are often painful, and rarely easy. As a mother I know you realize that. This "discomfort" will be minute compared to child birth. Don't worry yourself over it. That being said, I'm scared as hell, too. Who isn't. But I also know that a year from now I'll be saying, "this is the best thing I ever did for myself, and my loved ones". So will you. So bring back the fiesty, scrappy Crystal. This one is weirding me out. DD

Crystal, We could use the old saying ... " No Pain, no gain " ... we will all have to go through pain to gain our lives back! ... who knew I was so insightful? lol ....

LMAO yeah I know I guess it is the fear of not knowing......silly but normal

My fear is not waking up from the anesthesia. After that.....I don't care how much pain I have, at least I willl be alive to feel it!

You know I can totally understand the fear of the unknown. The biggest thing for me is the anesthetic ... what if they don't give me enough and I wake up on the table??? Just thought that I would throw that out there incase no one else thought of that! lol ... just kidding. ( I know, not funny.) For me I am not afraid of the pain, with how much pain I have been in these past years, this should be a walk in the park! But the anesthetic is what freaks me out. *sighs* I will rise above that as well ... I hope ... *gulp*

crystal that is one of my fears also. but i know we will have some pain .but just think about it later it will be well worth it . and we will due fine .

Well, I can tell you when I got my VBG it hurt it was worth it no matter if I am having issues now . its Like giving birth. its painfull but the out come fair out weighs the pain. You will feel better look better and jsut be able to do things you havent done in a long time.. or never was able.
