I have my date for 4/15/09---NEED SUPPORT!!!
I feel that I am on the edge with a panic attack that I don't ant to happen this close to my reality!
Please help!!!!
I wish you luck and hope all goes well for you.
I tell everyone who asks this question to “Expect the WORST" - that way when it doesn’t happen you can ask yourself “What the heck was I worried". And (God forbid) if the worst does happen - then you were prepared.
Honestly, I had it done 15 months ago and it was no big thing. I was in and out of the operation in 45 minutes - and in and out of the hospital in about 8 hours.
Now, this is what to expect when you get home
Day 1 - you will say “what the *$^#^!! did I do to myself? I can’t believe it"
Day 2 - you will say “what the heck did I do to myself? I am hurting - but it’s a little better then yesterday".
Day 3 - you will say “Eh. It’s really not that bad"
Day 4 - you will say “WOW - I can’t believe how well I feel!! Did they actually put the band in me ?!?!?!?"
I was back to normal in 2 days - but most people take 3 to 4 days.
Know I am here if you need me. Let us know how it turns out !!
