I go in on January 22nd to be banded and I am getting nervous..Anyone else in the same boat as me?

I am scheduled for lap band surgery on Jan.22nd. My insurance approved it and I have had everything done but pre op bloodwork which will be done this week or next. I am excited thinking of the lifestyle change and I know how much better I will feel to be thinner and healthier but I am scared of the surgery itself. My father had back surgery many years ago and never came out because the Drs goofed up and he bled to death on the table. Anyone who has surgery through True Results in Scottsdale how was it? Dr. Nirmul will be doing the surgery. Any info anyone can offer me would be so helpful. Are there any support groups in the Mesa area that I could attend before surgery?

I got approved by my insurance for the surgery and have scheduled it for January 22nd 2010. I must have a good plan because it was not hard at all to be approved. I am going through True Results in Scottsdale AZ and so far they have been great and right on the ball with everything and pretty much have took care of all my paperwork to submit to my insurance. Dr. Nirmul will be doing my surgery. I am nervous but cannot wait to have the surgery..Anyone else in AZ who wouldn't mind making a new friend?
