nerves are getting to me surgery on monday

Today I am so nervous. I leave tonight after work for my consult appt tomorrow. I am literally freaking out. Not becaue im nervous about the surgery, I cannot wait for that journey to begin, but because i have had one liver enzyme test come back just above normal on some blood work i have had done in the past and it was consistent. the doctors didnt make anything of it, said it didnt alert them to anything, but i really dont want this to hinder my surgery!!! which is scheduled on monday. ive dropped 10 pounds on the liquid diet so im hoping some of the fat on my liver as dropped. The cards lay as they will however, so i will have an update this weekend on my consult appt. im going in for psych eval at 10:30, my orientation and appts at 11:30, Wow I cant believe its tomorrow. Please keep me in your prayers as i know this surgery will give me a tool to save my life and be around to raise my wonderful children.

:thumbup:Hey Don't worry, put the faith in your doctors, and a higher power and you will be fine. Just stay positive. I was banded on August 28, 2008 and I have gone through many many emotions after surgery which is all part of the healing process. Just remember that you are so much stronger than you think. You will soon be moving around like before and don't do too much. Just take it easy and concentrate on healing, do everything that your doctors and nutritionists tell you and you will be just fine, DO NOT RUSH IT!! This forum has helped me soooooo much. I feel great mentally and am strating to look better too. Started at 308 lbs and weighed today at 279 Very pleased!!!! Keep in touch OK and All the best, always Andrea
