Wishing you Good Luck
Good Luck on your surgery. i know how you feel I also work in the hospital and I did not think it would scare me but YES it dd. However I knew my surgeon so well and the surgical staff I knew very well so it made it actually easier on me the day of surgery. I would never take back the last 6 months and I am so glad I had this done, almost 100 pounds lost in 6 months and I feel better than ever. You can and will do it, just remember as soon as they say you can get up and walk a little do it, no matter what try not to have to use the pain meds unless you have to, I never did. I felt great. So good luck to you cant wait to see ( read ) your progress.....
