I must be loosing my mind

[Guest guest]

I dont know what is going on with me. Every time I think about this

upcoming surgery I start crying. I am so scared; more then with any

of the others. I understand how it will go; I know that it is the

only hope for me now, it could put off a total by several years and

theroetically the procedure should work and I should be able to

return to work. Everything I want. If it works, the doc said

yesterday it will either work or not.

So why cant I stop sobbing. I've gathered some things and am making

a list for when Billy can take me to the store, crying. Has anybody

ever felt this way? I've had surgery in the past and have never

felt like this, something doesn't feel right, I dont know. I hope I

get over this soon.

I tried to walk a little more today did some good leg stretches and

lifted small 5 pounds weights for a bit. I am trying to get

stronger. That way when they put me in that insane assylum I'll at

least look fit.

I haven't caught up with all these posts in awhile because I have

been sick myself but your ote kind of jhit on something.

Sometiem when you have general aensthesia/and or a big procedure it

can cause an actually depression. Everytime I have general

anestheisa I wind up crying at the drop of a hat and being totally

miserable. Back in 1990 when i went throug some of this it was

horrible. Nw I know what to expect. You might want to check into

it.

Didn't mean to ramble on so, but I am speaking from the experience I

had. Feel free to send me an E-mail if you have any questions. My

email has changed to:

KayeFortenberry@...

It is the same provider but switched to DSL service and got a new

address. Take care and I hope I can help; you or at least answer

some specific questions.
