Why am I so terrified!?!? I keep wondering if I’m not going to wake up… or something is going to go wrong during the surgery… or I’ll get home and be in terrible pain… ETC. ETC. ETC. I’m due to get banded next Friday, 7/17. I started this journey in January. First it was just a thought. Then it was a determination. Now I’m here, and ready I Think. HELP! Please help me feel at ease. I need shoulders! I don’t personally know anyone that’s had the procedure done. My family and friends are all very supportive, but they aren’t going under the “knife”. QUESTION – Has anyone been banded by Top Surgeons in Beverly Hills, CA? How were you treated??? :biggrin::confused::glare::confused::sad::confused::confused:

You are all so wonderful! Thank you for putting some of my fears at ease. I have a stupid cold right now so I’m too tired and sick to really be stressed about Friday… THIS FRIDAY! OK, so I’m not completely unaware that my surgery is now only a couple days away. But I’m definitely not as scared as I was last week. Which is strange. It will probably all kick in Thursday night and Friday morning. Honestly, right now, today, I FEEL GREAT! I am so excited! I am SOOOO excited! My new life starts in 3 days!

Thank you for your comment Band_Groupie! I'm not so sure it's my fear of the surgery anymore... I think it's the fear of the doctor's office. Top Surgeons is a group of doctors right... so anyway, I just called to verify who MY doctor would be and it took them 10 minutes to figure it out. A few of those minutes were spent trying to figure out why she couldn't find that I had an appointment next week! “But you’re not scheduled next week…” UM YES I AM!!! That would make anyone nervous right?!?! Ugh! What the hell do I do now? Perhaps it’s just the stupid people they have working there. I’ve run into that many times. I can’t assume the doctor is the same?... Or can I?
