Don't Be Afraid
Hi Everyone,
Well I had my surgery on Thursday and it went very well. I had a lot of anxiety leading right up to the hospital. It wasn't as bad as I thought it was gonna be. I just wanted to let everyone know that is having surgery soon not to be afraid.
The moment I stopped being afraid was when I met the team of people that were going to be performing the surgery and my mind was at ease. These people are highly trained and will take good care of you! I'm home now and a little sore but the waiting was the worse part of this whole thing. Best of luck to all of you and you'll all be in my prayers! You'll do just fine!

Re: Don't Be Afraid
I felt the same way. Once I left my husband and dad and was wheeled into the OR a sense of peace came over me. Maybe they slipped drugs in my iv I don't know but I knew deep down I would be fine.
My anxiety was so high before wish it wasn't. Almost 5 months post op I feel so wonderful!

Re: Don't Be Afraid
That's awesome beccajow! I'm glad to hear you're doing so well. It's so nice to know we won't have to experience any more pain! Yeah I think you're right they slipped a 'cocktail' into our IVs but I'm glad they did
