GOT CLEARED!

Hi all. I'm scheduled tomorrow at 1230 for surgery and was still waiting on one clearance from the endocrinologist. I got it today at 730am! I'm a ball of emotions. I haven't really dealt with the fact that I'm having surgery because I didn't know own it I was going to. Now I'm just a wreck.

Keep me in your prayers tomorrow! I'm freaking out lol.

Good luck to all the sleevers this week and all of December. <3

thank you so much!

You will be a surgery rock star :) Is there anything specific that you are freaking out about?

Just the fact that I'm having surgery. I've never been put under before. I have a two year old and don't really think I came to terms with the fact that I am having surgery until today. It has been so up in the air. It's now all very real ;-)

I've never been put under either. I am scared of that. I tell myself "thousands of people do it everyday"... but I don't if that really helps me lol. How long is your expected stay at the hospital? Have you planned what you will bring?

They said one to two nights. Just bringing two sets of comfy clothes, robe, slippers phone and chapstick ;-). Making it simple. Have to be there at 1030 tomorrow.

I say the same thing people have surgery all the time and are fine.

Good luck to you! I never been put under either. Hopefully having mine done in jan of 2013

I find that planning and focusing on the simple and tangible things can keep me from freaking out too much. So I like to make lists and such :). I read on here that gas-x strips are a must have. I haven't asked my dr about that yet.
