The closer my date nears the more anxiety I have. I was diagnosed a few years back. I know that it is normal but I always take it to an extreme. I love this forum where I can just get things off of my chest, especially with people who know exactly how I feel. I'm scheduled for June 23. Keep me in your prayers.

Best wishes to everyone on this journey.

I had so much anxiety before my surgery. I was sleeved may 5th. For me the fear I had before surgery was worst then the recovery. I will keep you in my prayers.

Prayers for a safe, successful surgery. Your anxiety is completely normal. Once you get over the hurdle of this surgery it will be the best thing you have ever done!

I think we all understand that anxiety. Telling you not to worry is useless because I know you will. Just remember that this is a very successful surgery that is being performed all over the world with a minimum of complications. Look at the rest of us a and our successful stories and focus on the positive. Praying for an uneventful surgery and a quick and easy recovery.
