Congratulations on your upcoming surgery. It's normal to be a bit anxious before such a life changing surgery. I actually felt calmer once I got in to the facility. You will be fine, this is a good thing.

Good luck to both of you

Good luck!

Welcome to the group - it's really important. I'm 9 months post op and find this group as well as an in-person support group through my surgeons practice both incredibly helpful. Follow your surgeons instructions and you'll be fine. That said something will happen you didn't anticipate so don't hesitate to reach out here for advice and company. For example, somehow I missed the info that the gas injected for laparoscopic surgery would rise in my bloodstream and cause soreness in my shoulders, and on day 3 I got hiccups that I couldn't stop...both initially worried me, but it was helpful to be able ask others if what I was experiencing was normal or not.

You will do great! I second guessed myself a lot pre op, but now I'm so happy almost 3 weeks out! Add me, I would love more vsg buddies!

Congrats I hope things go better then expected. The best advice is sip sip sip.
