Hi all,

My surgery is 5 weeks away and I'm getting pretty nervous and I'm not sure why.....

I've had a few major surgeries in the belly region, with big incisions and I did really good.

I think the 2 things I'm most nervous about is the drug induced nap (me and anesthesia don't get along). I throw up every time and they give me way to much, based on my weight.....And getting all my water in.....

I'm pretty sure I'll be asking for a nice cocktail of something to calm my nerves the day of..

Hang in there I'm sure they'll be giving you something to relax pre-surgery and if they don't be sure to ask.. I know I'm gonna

Good luck to you. I'm sure I'll be losing my sh_t 3 days before surgery.

I'm scheduled next Monday and I'm feeling the same. I scheduled my midterms this week and work is insane so that's keeping me from obsessing right now but I know Saturday I'll be freaking out lmao

My surgery is in December and I'm trying to work around finals and end of year stuff at work. Gah! I totally get what you are saying and I'll be in the same boat in a month and a half.

Hi there, my surgery is two weeks away and I don't do well with anesthesia either. I was told at my visit with anesthesia that they will give me something for nerves before I even go into the operating suite. That calmed me down. Maybe you could ask if they can give you something too. Oh, and they give either zofran or promethazine before you go in for surgery too. You will do great!! I'm happy for you!!
