Stressed and surgery one week away

ok I have cleaned just about everything. going to my moms to clean Saturday. I was given xanax to take however with my job I cannot take it.
I even cleaned my floors on my hands and knees. scrubbed the carpeting. now my surgery is only 1 week away I am a nervous wreck.

mac - i know it's stressful . i remember. i got out of the car surgery day with tears in my eyes!
remember WHY it is you are doing this and know that soon u will feel so much better. (AND your house will be CLEAN!!! yay!)
You will do great. And when else in your life do u have an excuse to sleep during the day and watch movies and have friends pamper you! hehe
GOOD LUCK!!! 4 months post-op and I am feeling soooooooo wonderful. All the problems are gone. Look forward to that!!!!!

Hi,
I know what you mean. My surgery is Nov 28, I had my pre-op labs today and my blood pressure as 171/101. And I though I was staying calm. My butterflies are getting bigger day by day. I'm just trying to relax and enjoy Thanksgiving Day, I'm going to vist my son and the new granddaughter. Boy is it hard staying calm. Hang in there and I'll see you on the Post-op board. My prayers are with you and all my hystersister.

Hi Sisters,

I am so right here with you! My TAH is Nov. 26, and I told my doctor that I needed Xanax or I would be hitting the Vodka everynight this week! LOL!! She whipped out the RX pad. I had planned to do so much but I am just so tired!!
All I want to do right now is sleep(even without the Xanax)
then last night I started with insomnia!!

I wish you lived closer!! I would pay you to clean my house!!LOL!!

With stress symptoms like these, you need to come to my house! I could use your energy!

Just teasing.

I hope I am not being stupid here-- but in six months this will be a distant memory.

I think that paper work that we have to sign in the hospital paper work that states that no matter how many mistakes they make or how grave the consequences that we will not hold them responsible puts people over the edge. Sheeeesh! That is just not reassuring.

Hi,
Now I'm very concerned by surgery might be concelled. I came down with a tummy bug Wens night, diaerea, gas, temp the whole thing and here it s Thursday night and more of the same. I hope i get over this and the surgery goes as scheduled on the 28th.
