Making Myself Sick/crazy

I'm first to admit I have very little patience but since my paperwork was submitted to the insurance company I've gone off the wall! I have chest tightening/pain. I'm smoking like a chimney (even I noticed this), I'm not hungry much but still getting heartburn & indigestion(not normal for me). Is this all anxiety???? I want to scream!!!! I did pass my cardio testing 100% so I know chest pain is not a heart attack but you sure could fool me.

I'm all alone in this even though I live with my son & daughter in law, they have their life & I stay pretty much in my room (its large & comfy so its not a problem) but I feel so alone, no one to talk to about this.

Insurance can take 2 weeks or more to decide, I'll be a basket case by then!!!

Has anyone gone thru this?

I know what you're going through. I am in the exact same boat as you. This waiting game sucks and in my head I keep going over all the things that could go wrong (rejection letter). I am irritated, emotional over everything and can't sleep at night.

I think your feelings are normal. All you can do is try to distract yourself in the meantime. Go shopping, listen to music, exercise, etc.

I am self pay but the surgery is all I can think about. I check this site several times a day.

I think you have a lot time before you will have your surgery date so nothing to worry about yet. It took my 2 years to get this here. my date is one week from today talk about fear.
