Pre-Op Craziness...

Okay so my surgery is exactly 2 weeks away and I feel like I'm driving myself crazy!!!!  I keep worrying about what I'm going to look like after I lose weight and I keep having these crazy dreams where I can't see my face post-op.  Then I keep having dreams where the day of the surgery comes but I end up not having the surgery and I never know the reason why in my dreams.  Then I keep questioning whether or not I'm doing the right thing.  I guess the only good thing is I have to work up until the day so I'm not at home constantly thinking about it.  But then again I'm not very productive at work either, go figure.  Did anyone else deal with this?  What are some things you did to calm your nerves?

 It's ok!  What's happening is perfectly normal.  I had weird dreams pre-op too that absolutely creeped me out and I kept changing my mind about every hour.   

Just take it day by day...you'll do great and you are making the right choice!

Thanks everyone, I can't wait for the day to finally be here.

I haven't had dreams about what I will look like but did dream I was eating the best french fries I had ever eaten in my life - LOL! Your fears are very normal. Try and keep busy. God bless you and your recovery.
