cant sleep

havent slept since 3am this morning, the dog woke me up and then my mind started spinning about the surgery and the prep day tommorrow. my anxiety is high but i am trying to be brave. needing lots of prayers my way, its going to be a crazy couple of days here still.

You got it all will be ok. Rest rest rest. And follow doct instructions. Keep us posted

thanks for the words of encouragement. really needed that right now.

If you can't sleep try to rest. It's going to be OK. As far as the prep thing goes, I found that the magnesium citrate that they had me take was no where near the night mare that I thought it would be in fact I have to say I felt better for it, even now. I made sure my Nook was charged up and bought nice soft wet wipes instead of just toilet paper. You may find that as the time gets closer to your surgery that you get calmer, I hope so.

Concentrate on getting your movies, puzzles, doodle art, knitting, clean sheets, phone charger, tv and remote, and the nice stuff close by for your return home. The jitters are normal, they come and go.

Best of luck! Will be thinking of you

thank you. i am taking the magnesium citrate as well tommorrow and i know magnisium is good for you, so i am hoping for the same experience for me. I hope for calmness on friday morning, thats what i am praying for. I think i will try for a nap today. thank you so much i really appreciate your thoughts.

Oh! and since I was on a liquid diet during the prep day I found that Ensure Clear was wonderful. It was tasty, had the protien I needed and didn't spike my blood sugar.

i dont know if thats available here in Canada, but thanks i will check that out.

Princess77,

I hope that you have been able to fall asleep this evening. Sending positive thoughts and prayers for a relaxing day tomorrow and Friday.

I too hope you are able to get some sleep and have a relaxing day tomorrow. Sending strong thoughts your way for the next few days!
