Scared! Tomorrow is surgery!

So I did my pre-op yesterday and my surgery is scheduled for tomorrow at 9am. I'm on clear liquids as I've been for 2 weeks! It has been very overwhelming! Yesterday was my birthday and I turned 24, I couldn't eat or drink! My stomach feels so empty! I'm pretty anxious and I'm scared to see how things will go afterwards! Yikes!

My surgery is Tuesday!! So nervous and excited! Can't wait to get to the other side!

Oh good luck! It will be so quick! The recovery gets better each day!

Good luck tomorrow!! The first couple of days will be tough. I kept breaking out in tears the 1st couple of days. I remember asking my husband "why did I do this" "why couldn't I just be happy with who I am"

I think it was the anesthesia... life is much better now!

Just remember the early stages are only temporary: )
