Guest guest Posted May 4, 2005 Report Share Posted May 4, 2005 Ok Group ... tomorrow is my surgery and I'm starting to, well, to " freak out " just a bit. If I think about it too long, my chest starts to constrict and I feel like my insides are shaking. I think about being wired shut and what a claustrophobic must feel like when s/he is in a closet with the door shut. How do you handle that panicked feeling? What if I all of a sudden just can't breathe or move or think or ...? Maybe I'm just being paranoid or maybe I'm just being silly. But the question occurred to me yesterday: what if I have some sort of panic attack when I'm wired shut? You guys have been so nice to me and you seem to have a plethora of information available among the masses. So, I pose this question ... with the risk of sounding silly or being embarrassed - because the thought won't go out of my head - because I can - because the answer, or a decent facsimile thereof, might come back to me. Thanks ... so much, Carol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
