I went to my general doctor and I had some analysis done few weeks ago and everything came out good, just a little anemia and he prescribe some Iron to take twice a day. I'm a healthy woman and have two children (4 &2) I had two C-section and my weight is around 148 pounds and 5'2''. My concern is because I want to have a TT back lipo. I just feel selfish because this is something I just want to do it and its my dream but I just thinking of my children.

Answer: Nervous about surgery. Thank you for your question. Of course it's normal to be nervous about surgery. Especially elective surgery. It may seem strange but I think a nervous patient is actually a better patient. A nervous patient will listen to and follow instructions better and has a healthy dose of reality. We Take risks every day in our lives. Flying, driving, and other activities. The risks of surgery are low but remember that you should never feel pressured. From your height and your weight I believe that your goals are realistic. wanting to feel normal again is more than reasonable. I don't think you should feel guilty about that. Best wishes and good luck with your upcoming surgery.

Answer: Preoperative anxiety It's completely normal to feel nervous in the days leading up to surgery, and you can always speak with your plastic surgeon beforehand to address any last minute concerns. Before undergoing any surgical procedure, always make sure your plastic surgeon is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. Best of luck,Keith M. Blechman, MDNew York, NY
