Red face Nervous ... HELP

Hello all, I have been off getting all my things done. I have the labs done, and meet with the surgeon on Weds. next week. Then the surgery on March 3rd. The thing is I am driving myself crazy, I guess it is nerves. I am trying to keep busy by getting the house all ready. That way after surgery I won't feel so bad if I can't get everything done. I just am so fidgety, and get so easily aggravated. I thought at first it was the pre-op diet. I just can't seem to sit still during the day, and at night I am so tired by 8 pm lol. It is normal to be like this the closer to surgery I get?

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

I think you're probably feeling a bit of anxiety. I know I did the day prior to surgery. But I woke up the day of surgery and was raring to go. Even had the foresight to take photos before walking out the door to go to the hospital. Good luck. DAVE

Sure it is! You're getting ready to undergo a big WONDERFUL change in your life -- its a whole new you so you have the right to be nervous and jittery -- its good to keep busy and get your rest before surgery -- that will help. Just do whatever keeps you moving toward your goal.

What you are feeling is very normal, this is a big change for one to undergo, try to keep busy and things will work out.

Oh yes I totally nested too- cleaned out every cabinet and room top to bottom. I was a wreck one minute and excited the next. Good luck to you- it will be over soon and the next leg of your journey will begin!
