    Yep, there is a lot of anxiety going on right before the surgery. It's the unknown and the catastrophizing we to in our heads. Do something different and keep yourself busy. You will do great tomorro

My prayers go out to you! If you can, please post afterwards too see how it goes. My surgery is scheduled for 9/3! Best of luck!

Yep, there is a lot of anxiety going on right before the surgery. It's the unknown and the catastrophizing we to in our heads. Do something different and keep yourself busy. You will do great tomorrow and when you wake up, you will not feel a thing because you will have pain meds (like a morphine pump) that will keep you comfortable. You will most likely sleep most of the day and night away and before you know it, you will be on your way home with your sleeve! CONGRATS and here's to a speedy recovery! :)
