November 18, 200916 yr My Surgery is Friday and I'm kind of freaking out - mostly on the inside but none the less FREAKING OUT. What if I'm not ready - will I ever be ready if I'm not now. I'm fat and tired of being fat. So many emotions I need to know if everyone else goes through this???
November 18, 200916 yr dont worry everything is going to be great. you are going to have the power with this great tool and are with a little patience and hard work going to acheive your goals good luck.
November 18, 200916 yr You sound like me!! My family was nervous but the day came and I was ready to rock and roll. They nurse took my BP once I was taken back and it was normal, for me.. which is a little high but not bad due to my HBP meds... if I was nervous, I would have expected my BP to be high... the nurse was laughing at me because I kept asking when they were gonna take me to the OR and that I was ready to rock and roll... she said that most patients come in and they are nervous.. I wasn't nervous in the least...and I think that's because I KNEW this was the right decision for me...good luck tomorrow and let us know how it goes!! I am SO excited/nervous....I can hardly stand myself!!!...:redface:
November 19, 200916 yr I know i feel the same way. Mu husband is having the bypass and he can not understand me being excited about surgery. I just know it is the start of a better life.
November 19, 200916 yr Good luck on tomorrow you will be fine. I was band on 11/12/09 and I am doing good I didn't have to have any pain meds. I was sore and it did hurt but it was nothing I couldn't handle. I started walking 1 mile the next day. When you get or feel like you need to burp just walk,rock, or the best thing I found was someone on here said to lean forward and the air will work it's way out. Belive me after the first day it does get better.Just hang in there. See you on the flip side!!!:thumbup:
