I know exactly what you mean. I am so ready for it to be 6 months from now and I will feel so much better. I swear the last two weeks I have felt like I am barely holding on. My breathing has been worse, my back has been killing me and my ankles are hurting and swollen. I just keep telling myself to hang on because help is on the way. My surgery is May 4th and I am so ready. Best of luck to all of us, we are almost there! Karen

Hi may date is also May4 th and I know that we are doing the right thing and i knoiw what you mean my breathing and swollen ankles also have gotten worst. Best of all for both of us. And i know when we are on the other side (the losing side) WE ARE GOING TO DO GREAT. JENNY 5/4ER

Tina, Good luck on your upcoming surgery and I pray for an uneventful recovery. I'll be following you May 12th out on the left coast and yes, I've been running the gamet of emotions but not really much panic. The panic attacks came a lot earlier in my process of trying to get approval, mostly while waiting for my first surgeon consultation and the realization that I was really going to go through with this. The last seven months of struggle to get approval from the insurance company gave me plenty of time to educate myself and get over most of the fear of the unknown but who knows how I'll feel in another week or so.
