Hi All,
I am set as of today to get my sleeve surgery on 03/07 with Dr McGinty in NYC at St Luke's Hospital. Has anyone been to him? I am wondering about your thoughts about him. Today has been an extremely emotional day between finally getting a date after all these appointments I have been too and going over the potential complications with the Dr.
To say the least I am a nervous wreck. I am scared about the surgery itself, I'm scared about the life change, I'm scared to end my relationship with food, I'm petrified about the complications. I'm kind of having second thoughts. Some words of advice or support from someone who has been here would be great. I just want to live a normal life so bad. I don't want to get this done and constantly feel like I'm not living life to the full potential because I have to eat as slow as a snail and I also don't want my life to be cut short because I decided to do something irreversible so early on.
ah!!!!
