My surgery is in 2 weeks. I am overweight but do not have any health issues. I have been reading some of the posts from post surgery. I am getting scared. Anyone else feel this way?

Hi. It's only natural to be nervous of the unknown. I busied myself clearing out cupboards etc when I wasn't at work. This helped occupy me but also helped with the pre op weight loss! I had my op 2 days ago, I haven't been sick at all and have slept well. Today my stomach is a little sorer but I think it is due to the bruising. I can't say I have had proper pain at all, some discomfort on Thurs /Fri in my right shoulder but I have mobilised a fair bit. Now I need to learn how to take things easy;)

if you werent scared i would be concerned. your gonna have surgery so what you're feeling is perfectly natural. these boards were a great source of support for me. just know that you will hear/read negative and positive. feel free to PM me with any questions.
