  1. Yes, I after going through that, I would be wicked nervous too! ? The key to most things is open communication . Did you talk to your surgeon about your last experience? Or is it the same person? In which case, holy cow- yes, I'd be nervous. Again, you have a valid point and reason to be. For me, I find that the more I talk, vent, etc, the better I feel. Definitely voice your concerns and fears with your doctor and staff. Nothing wrong with that! It's always that anticipatory anxiety before a big leap into something new. Even the night before a plane ride will make me think of 'all that could go wrong' But then when I am actually on the plane, I'm good as gold. I hope this makes sense. I bet you will be just fine. ☺️ One bad experience doesn't mean it will be a repeat. ? I wish you all the best!
  2. I'm only looking into having surgery done for the first time ever. BUT, I can tell you this- I'm sure your feelings are 100% valid, since you didn't have a nice go of it the first round. For my own educational purposes, what was awful about your las recovery time? If I go ahead with this procedure, it will probably be the sleeve.
