Tomorrow is my surgery date.
Im having anxiety.  

 I never have anxiety over anything. Im a medic and work on an ambulance..I thrive on this kind of stuff.  lol  

I guess to add to my anxiety the hospital just called and wants me there an hour earlier than scheduled.   

This is normal, right?

 I'd like to say, "no", just to tease you, but it's completely normal. I have to say that I had no anxiety at all (except feeling like it was Xmas Eve and I didn't want to sleep) but it's normal to be anxious. You are starting your life over!

Tomorrow is my day too.  I'm not anxious just a little nervous.  Probably won't sleep much tonight.  LOL

 Thanks Bette!!!
I know the feelings Im having are normal, guess I just needed reassurance.

Congrats to all the others that are having "their special day" tomorrow!!!

Hey Pam! I am a nurse with control issues who is much happier on the right side of the IV pole! LOL!! Was a nervous wreck before surgery but sailed through with flying colors and so will you!

Great to get in there an hour earlier... move up in the schedule and be on the loser's bench a little earlier than planned. Good luck to you!!

CONGRATS!! I'm also a nurse and have a hard time being the patient also!! It's funny how we are, I guess we are just used to caring for others! But take time to relax and recover!! You can do it!!! I hope everything will go well for you!! I'm sure everything will, keep us posted on how you are doing!!

It is perfectly normal to be anxious and nervous and excited.  there are many emotions involved with this surgery.  You will be fine and by this time tomorrow night you will have your new band be on your way to your new life.  I was a mess and over nothing.  I had a some discomfort but no real pain.  I was up and walking that afternoon.  I went to the hospital 2 or 3 hours prior to surgery.  there is a lot to do.  Good luck.  Let us all know how you make out.  Take Care, ME

Wow!  My day is tomorrow too!  Must be good luck for all of us starting our new lives!  My anxiety started at Noon today, could not get myself calmed down.  I'm so afraid I will forget something in getting my family taken care of while I'm in the hospital.  Or forgetting my ID, do I have enough clothes, etc...ahhhhh!  LOL
