I have been thinking about else for years. In January of this year I made a final decision to take charge of my life. I was very lucky, I had all of my prerequisites done in 2 weeks and I was approved by the insurance in 1 week. My surgery date is 3/5/14. I can't believe how the time flew by, it doesn't seem real that my surgery is tomorrow. I have been reading a lot of the posts on here and it has helped me a lot. I was anxious for my surgery date to get here, but now that it's here I am really nervous.

I understand your nervousness. I'm nervous too. My surgery is on Thursday 3-6-14. Hang in there. It won't be so bad. They'll put you to sleep and when you wake up it will all be over with. Good luck.

My surgery is tomorrow too. I am so nervous. For the last two days, sleep has been minimal. Looking forward to waking up Wednesday afternoon, after surgery, and starting this journey. We got this!

Hi Kim

I take it you are a nurse. I am too. I am at work waiting for the doctor's office to call back with my surgery date. I understand your nervousness, I am as well but this is such a wonderful tool and I am sure that we will both be just fine. Good luck with your surgery. Post when you can

Just got the call, surgery at 9, have to be at the hospital at 6. I'm glad I don't have to wait all day. Sending well wishes to everyone having surgery tomorrow.

Hi Kim, my name is Kim and my surgery is tomorrow as well! We got this! I am keeping myself distracted today the best that I can. I am waiting for a call for my check-in time. Trying to keep my anxiety down, so far it's barely working. But hey, it's normal. Best of luck!

Had surgery Wednesday, just got home 1/2 hour ago. I slept the entire day and night after surgery. Yesterday I felt like hell, I was actually starting to think I made a big mistake. Woke up this morning, pain was minimal, nausea was gone and after 6-7 laps around the floor I feel like a new person. I hope all is going well for all of the other fresh post-ops.
