Three more weeks....

Well, time is ticking away here.... seems like this past week just flew... I'm finding I don't really THINK I'm nervous, but my teeth are killing me, meaning I'm clenching them as I sleep!!! Last night I dreamt I was an ER nurse...(I'm a nurse, but not in the ER....) and a patient came in after WLS....I kept telling Dr. Carter (yes, the one from TV) NOT to give her an NG tube!!!! He was thankful for the info!!! I guess I'm feeling like we're better educated about a lot of this stuff than the general public, and even a lot of Doctors!!!! Thank you OH!!! So is anybody else having weird preop dreams??? I can't wait to be a big fat loser!!!! 3 weeks from today!!!! Teri S

WHEN I FIRST STARTED WITH THE INSURANCE APPROVAL STAGE BACK IN FEB. I WOULD HAVE A HARD TIME GOING TO SLEEP DUE TO MY HEART TRYING TO BEAT OUT OF MY CHEST (DUE TO ANXIETY I GUESS), NOW THE CLOSER I GET THE BETTER I SLEEP. I CAN'T EXPLAIN THAT.... 3 WEEKS WILL FLY BY FOR YOU, I HAVE 5 WEEKS AS OF TODAY!!! JACQUE

Hello Teri Congratulations to you! Your day will be here before you know it! I haven't started having any "weird pre-op" dreams yet. That's funny...a friend of mine whose scheduled for surgery 7/22 e-mailed me today saying she was having strange WLS dreams! Hmmmmmmmmmmm Best wishes & Good luck to you! -Nikki Surgery 8/17/04

I am... having weird WLS dreams! About food, about surgery, about being thin... all really weird. They didn't start until a few weeks ago and I have had a surgery date since late April. *~Amber~*
