Anxiety sucks!

So I am one week away from Lap Band (I know it's not as invasive as RNY) I am starting to get really anxious!!!!  I got this big knot in the pit of my stomach yesterday...... a holy CRAP moment..... this is going to be a long week I am afraid.

Keep your head up !! Things will be just fine!!! Can't wait to see ya on the losers bench

Oh I can fully understand where you are coming from. I was about a week out when it really hit me. The last 3 days were bad for me. I had a couple of panic attacks,  and I had NEVER had those before. I pray I never have them again! :) The funny thing is the day of surgery, I let the doc know about them and they were prepared to give me something but I was pretty good. Got a little nervous heading into the OR, but for the most part I was pretty calm. Just hang in there and the best thing I found was to talk about it and NOT keep it in. That made it a lot worse for me. Good luck and I'm sure you do great! Julie

You wouldn't be human if you didn't have your holy crap moments. I had a lot of them, the last one being the morning of surgery! lol Once I got to the hospital things went to fast to have any more of them! You will be fine and your seat on the bench is saved.

I totally understand!!!  I have started having dreams about my surgery and stuff like that.  I know you will be just fine!!! Hang in there!! We are here for you!  

Thanks for the kind words....I had a dream last night that I forgot to shave my legs and the surgeon was so grossed out he wouldn't perform the surgery...... HA  kinda funny now that I am awake.....
