Anyone from NH

Anyone in this group from NH?  The other thing that I wanted to ask is anyone scared?

On the main board there seemed to be some last minute jitters or some feeling somewhat apprehensive.

Me I am so happy to have the surgery. I had more comorbiditys than were necessary for approval. Some people might think it's not normal but I am not afraid at all. This surgery is a huge gift to me. It is the gift of my life.

The percentages of dying from my obesity in some of my cormorbidities were as high as 85% and the percentage of complications from the surgery are about 1%.

I have spent a great deal of time arming myself with knowledge and preparing for the surgery.

I am going to have a positive attitude unless something happens and I wil deal with it then.

Thanks for coming to our forum.

Hello,

I am from NH and yes.....I was very scared! To the point I started crying while getting into my hospital gown before surgery. I think you wouldn't be human if you weren't scared. I also tend to be a worrier. But, now....a month later......I am seeing what a positive difference it is making in my life. I can't get over the energy I have. I feel happier and actually look forward to getting dressed in the morning.  Are you having Lapband? Is your surgery date set?

Hang in there.....you are making a good choice.

I'm scared too but also very excited thinking about the results. Seems this helps block out the nervousness. I'm having my lapband done on March 30th by Dr. Campbell. I have a friend that also just had her's done yesterday and she is doing great. Has already emailed me.
You'll do great too.
