Tomorrow is the big day!!!

#1 Post by AndyH »

It has finally arrived. I'm having BSSO and Genio tomorrow. I'm going through phases of excitement and anxiety at the moment. By tomorrow morning I'm sure the excitement will probably have disappeared. Have to check into Hospital at 10am so I'm assuming it'll be an early afternoon operation.

Any last minute tips or advice?

Good luck! I'll keep you in my thoughts. Since I'm waiting for appointments I have no good advice except be secure in that others have made it.

Good luck Andy, hope it all goes smoothly.

I'd be very interested in hearing about your experiences in surgery and afterwards, if you'd like to post them. I have surgery (in the UK also) looming myself and would like to know how it all goes - most accounts posted on here are from the US/Canada, so I'm always eager to read a British account.

Andy,

As far as the anxiety part, what works for me is to keep busy and go for walks for the tension. It really helps to do something physical. Just think, in just over a day you won't be anxious about the surgery any more! 8)

My turn is in 5 days and I am already having trouble sleeping!

Best wishes to you tomorrow. We'll be thinking of you.

Hey Andy! You have a surgery buddy--ME! Mine is scheduled for 7:30, but I think with the time difference, you'll be in the OR before I will.

I'm having a LeForte I and BSSO. We'll compare notes on the other side. Best of luck to you, mate!

So by the time I get up tomorrow morning and go to work, you'll have already been in surgery a couple of hours, and it'll be over before you know it. We're all rooting for you - best of luck!
