Dreams--is it just me?

For the past three nights, I've been dreaming about going into surgery for the lapband. They weren't nightmares but more anxiety dreams. I haven't even gotten the surgery approved by my insurance carrier yet...just turned in all my paperwork less than a week ago.

Does anyone else have these dreams? I think I'm already getting obsessed with the surgery! I know that I'm incredibly anxious to get things started. I want it SO bad!

O yes. Right after I went to the seminar, and started doing more research, I must have had lapband surgery 3 times a night! Now I only have it once a week. Guess that's improvement. Maybe our minds are just trying to make sense of it all.

I honestly don't remember having them over my band. Rightnow I am waiting to hear from insurance on a TT---and I dreamed they told me I had to make arrangements for the disposal of the skin and fat they remove!!! They brought it to me in a zip lock marked Hazardous Waste!!!!

If I could just get the approval----I'll dispose of it even!!!!

That's hilarious and disgusting at the same time! That said, I, too, would be willing to dispose of my fat & skin in zip lock bags if I get approved!!!

YES!

I must be more nervous about it than I think because something always goes wrong (weird, weird stuff) in my dreams.....but yes, probably two or three a week!

I dream about lap band almost every night. Either preparing for the surgery, going to the surgery or of loosing the weight after the surgery. My mind has never taken me into the actual surgery, thank goodness. That would freak me out. Last night I dreamed that I went into the surgery and when I woke up they had not put the band on me.
