Anxious is putting it mild

I have to have a stent put in my leg with a filter because of a genetic blood clotting disorder I have suffered from. A lapband taken out it has destroyed my insides and the gastric bypass. I am nervous and anxious. My husband is 100 percent supportive of my decision but not pushy. I need support. My story is a lot more complicated. I am scared. My surgery is July 14 but the days and making me more nervous. Yes I think of the positive often by negative scares me too. What somebody calls this routine for most it isn't for me. I need a support system. Are looking for the same?

I hope this time you will find the tools and approach to make your WLS a success. It's sounds like you are in great hands with a surgeon who is proactive about your care. Good luck and stay strong.
