You're almost THERE! Let us know how your preop appointment went - we're here rooting for you! Dr. Callery - and Dr. Potts, also - are great surgeons (they BOTH worked on mine!), and you'll be in very good hands - don't worry!
It's completely normal to be a little (or even a lot) freaked at the idea of doing this surgery, but the way I look at it, if I didn't go for it, I'd probably be on the table for heart bypass surgery before long, anyhow! (Bill Clinton and I were born on the same day, same year!... so his recent experience only reinforced my decision to go forward!)
