Tummy Tuck + Anxiety Q&A

Im scheduled for a mommy makeover in a couple days and Im having horrible anxiety and questioning everything. I know Im having a T type cut done. The doctor explained I would have a small vertical scar below the belly button.

I have had a couple of unusually traumatic c-sections so I get a little bit of surgery anxiety. I know it's a common surgery. I mostly have heard about post-surgery complications rather than any complications possible during surgery. For someone young and healthy, would it be uncommon?

I take low dose cannabis oil sublingually for anxiety and fibromyalgia. Do I need to stop before my tummy tuck surgery? If so, how far in advance and how long postoperatively should I not take it? What are the risks of consuming cannabis too close to surgery or too soon after surgery? Please note, I never smoke or vape any substances, my consumption is exclusively swallowed in oil form.

TT surgery over 2 mos ago. Would the TT surgery cause something un-detected to appear? Why do I have brain fog and anxiety all the time now? About 12 days after surgery I starting getting nauseous and dizzy. 20 days after surgery I ended up in the ER due to fatigue and dehydration. EKG, xrays, CT with dye, blood work etc were done. All normal. Im still dizzy and nauseated and cant focus. I have no motivation to do anything. Why would this start after my TT.?

Some people say it goes by in a flash but I didn't know what it would be like for a 3hour tummy tuck.

Do any other surgeons here prescribe or mention using cannabis cbds and thc for recovery in patients with ultra sensitive pain and or anxiety? Being a legal State I can't say enough about it. I'm eternally grateful to my husband and Doc and believe I wouldn't be doing as well without the medical cannabis. In fact I know so. I can now sleep eat just fine, use the restroom just fine, have no anxiety and easily got off narcotics. I wonder is any surgeons here prescribe it too?

I am 7 days out from my tummy tuck. I still wear the binding garment around the clock except when showering, as my doctor recommends. Whenever I remove the garment I can't breathe normally and feel severe anxiety until it is back in place. Is this normal?

When I say full on I mean doing back squats, front squats, deadlifts, pull-ups, push-ups, sit-ups, hollow rocks, tuck ups, burgers, etc... I'm VERY ANXIOUS to get back to my NORMAL workouts!!!!

Not sure if its anxiety because I'm scared I'm not going to lose this weight I gained in my thighs and butt.

My head feels funny like am in a fog. Am taking oxcycodone n ibuprofen. I feel dizzy n light headed. Lost apperire. A little upset stomach. The pain is bearable on a case of 1 to 10.10 being real bad am abt a 3. I called my Surgeon he says to increase my fluids. My head feels spacey. I just hate this feeling. Like am gonna pass out or die. Which has I creased my anxiety. Is this normal.
