with my galbladder last year, I cried like a baby. I kept thinking i'd be terrified today, but those nerves don't seem to be coming yet ! I spent 9 months trying to get this surgery so maybe that's why. I researched all the surgeons in my area and I absolutely love mine , and can't wait for him to operate on me, LOL. I feel very comfortable. Or maybe it will kick in when I get to the hospital and start to undress ??

Fine by me If my nerves never show up, but I'm the kind of neurotic worrier that won't take planes or morw than one Tylenol and is scared of elevators ! How could this be ? Anyone else who anticipated fear and had very little ? I am so grateful!

Good Luck! I wish you a speedy recovery

Best wishes to you. I've had both surgeries and the lap band surgery was easier than the gallbladder surgery for me. However, I weighed about a hundred pounds less when I had my gallbladder out than when I had my lap band surgery.

Hope all goes well.

Best wishes!!! Bet you'll do just fine - it helps when you can see that "light" at the end of the tunnel.... much easier to see it with banding than gall bladder. Good luck!
