Monday is the day!

Hey y'all! Monday is my day! :D

I am SO excited & slightly nervous about being put under a general anesthetic... I've been out under once before but many years ago. Any advice to calm my nerves?

    Good luck. I actually stayed a night in the hospital. I think once u are awake dont try n be a superwoman. Dont lift or over exert yourself. Slowly try to go to the bathroom and begin walking at the hospital. Ur gonna be exhausted so dont push it. U will be just fine. When I removed my tonsils 2 yrs ago I was woken up by an aggressive nurse. She was shoving the oxygen mask on my face n scared the **** out of me. But the bariatric nurses I think were much more gentle as they deal with wls patients all day long. Keep in touch. Good luck.
