Surgery hours away and so nervous!

Super nervous going into the surgery! Please share your positive outcomes for me so I may visualize that the end is worth it! The preop prep was surprisingly easy for the prescribed 2 weeks - despite me feeling like I was detoxing and a bit irritable. ? I just want to live life with my family ? percent to the fullest! Thank you for the prayers and encouragement!

    I will pray for the success of your surgery. Remember after the surgery to walk, walk, walk. It will help a lot with relieving the gas pain.

I backed out the first time due to anxiety...Second time around I was so defeated I had to do something.. Youll be just fine.

Focus on your goals! I had minimal pain, they handled it so well with meds. I took a relaxing week off from work and enjoyed being lazy and taking care of myself. I know I will succeed and you will too!!!
