This Friday--Banding--VERY nervous

Hi All,

I am getting banded this Friday with Dr. Feiz in Beverly Hills--being banded at Cedars. I am quite nervous, excited and feeling every emotion possible. I am hoping that I chose the right doctor, although, I keep having doubts. I have done quite a bit of research and still just doubting everthing. Have any of you, prior to surgery, felt the same way--I just keep flip flopping back and forth between emotions. One moment I feel great and excited and the next and I doubting everything, including if I have chosen the right doctor.

Would love to hear from you.

Thanks so much!

Definitely felt the same mix of emotions. All the way up until they wheeled me to the operating room. I wanted to jump off the table and change my mind at one point. I think from reading this forum it is pretty normal to feel this way.

Thank you so much. I go from one emotion to the next--flip floppin' like a fish. Super excited about starting a new life, so to speak, with a new relationship to food. Super nervous about being put out in order for me to start a new life.
