Re: need contacts for 2nd chance

[Guest guest]

,

Stop kicking yourself! I know how you feel because I backed out at

clinic 2 days before surgery. Don't regret the decisions you have

made along the way. Just be very certain you want the surgery. You

actually made it through the toughest part, all the way to the

holding area. Be grateful Dr. R will do the surgery and move on.

My surgery was 3 1/2 months later and I'm doing GREAT! The second

time around my feet were more firmly on the ground, I was less

excited, more nervous and just more ready. It's a major surgery to

go through.

I'd be glad to be a contact. E-mail me at home: beachwalkers @ home.

I know what you mean about freaking out in holding

because I nearly got up and ran away. I just couldn't

stop thinking about waking up altered and that I

hadn't really tried EVERY diet, had I? I finally

turned to one of the anethesia people and told them to

put me out. They put some medication in my IV and I

woke up feeling like someone had punched me in the

stomach. I didn't move myself onto the table or

anything. The thought of losing control and trusting

someone else was too much for me. I am thankful that

they put me to sleep because otherwise I couldn't have

gone on much longer. For you pre ops, please remember

to ask to be sedated if you start freaking out.

Trudy. p.s. I should have a 1 month report in about

1 week.
