  1. HI my name is Theresa I just went through brain surgery on July 16. My biggest fear was being put to sleep. I thought of every possible thing that would and could go wrong! If you express your your feelings the day of surgery they will give you something in your IV kinda gives you the feeling of having just a little too many drinks. Dont know if you drink or have in the past. I felt more at ease. They didnt tell me when they were going to put me to sleep. I rememberd them putting the stuff for stress in my IV [my husband said I was awake but out of it] then next thing I knew the nurse was telling me to wake up my surgery was done. When I came to I was tired and just wanted to sleep. I had a little pain, but it was a different type of surgery. I have 2 more surgeries to go for my neck & back, then I want to have Lapband done. I dont think I will worry so much about it next time. Everything will be OK dont worry.
