How are you doing? What exactly are you getting done in your mm? You are a little more then a month and half away!!

June 12, 2012

Hi! I'm doing great and you... I'm having a BL and TT w/MR. I already scheduled my pre and post op appointments. I'm very excited and nervous at the same time. I keep having these dooms day thoughts that I have to shake off. Is that normal? LOL!

Yes, those thoughts are VERY normal. I think almost everyone on the site has had those thoughts of "what if I don't wake up from surgery!" "what if I get a terrible complication?". Try to deep take deep breaths and keep your eyes on the prize. We're here for you!

I have those thoughts and mine is 5 months away. So I would say it was normal.:-)

That seems completely normal. I just had my surgery about a month ago and it can be pretty scary. I had never be put completely under before, the thought of someone making a mistake on me was there, what if I didn't choose the right doctor, what if something happens to me and I don't wake up to see my kids, etc... You name it, I thought it. But then after talking to some people who'd been under before, I got a lot of advice that however you go in is how you're going to come out, so it pays off to relax and have a good attitude. The doctor and his team were very nice and reassuring so I just closed my eyes, woke up and it was over. Don't worry, it will be ok. Good luck!

Thanks so much for your encouraging words I try to shake it off when thy come bits it's there I guess the difference between this and any other surgery is that it's elective so you're mind starts playing tricks on you I bet if I ha to take out my gall bladder I wouldn't be so scared you know what I mean?

I think surgery is surgery. Every time is a risk. Just stay positive and you'll be on your way to recovery.
