    Hi there, I'm also having a VSG done July 1. I'm filled with anticipation and anxiety at the same time. I can't wait to be done with the Cpap. High BP, bad knees and overall feeling like crap..

July 23. I have been waiting not so patiently since mid April to be cleared due to problem with my labs. All of today was spent waiting in Dr. Office. Sent to lab to reorder blood work. More waiting but finally cleared for surgery.

Just got my surgery date today...it is on July 1st! Alternating between being happy and thinking "Oh, my God, what if I die??"

Literally when I told my husband, he asked about my 'last wishes'...and no, he was not joking/being funny/teasing, etc.

Really sucked some of the happiness out of the moment.

Thats how im feeling too because i am only 22 years old and i have never had surgery in my life and July 18th is coming extremely fast lol So im anxious but so excited. Id rather feel nervous for something that's going to help me tremendously then nervous to see if im going to have diabetes when i go to my PCP for check ups every year. This is gonna be so worth it and congratulations!! This definitely isn't easy but you got this ?

A friend of mine had it and did very well so I mentioned to a very good friend of mine about me getting it and her reaction was I don't think you need it you just have a little belly. That was about a year ago and I didn't want anyone talking me out of it. Did you want to follow each other for support?

I had a few reactions like that too but they werent in my body and they didnt know how i felt with my own personal being if that makes sense lol. My close family and friends supported me and thats all that mattered to me. Good luck with your surgery!
