Hi, I am wondering if anyone is considering not having surgery or decided to not have surgery because they are just too scared and anxious about the recovery process and being on an operation table?
I need to exercise everyday to giht off my depression demons, and sometimes i cant imagine having this big srs surgery and wont be able to do anything..for weeks and going to hosptial and all that
just wondering if anyone shares my thoughts

ME ME ME. I have had enough surgeries that it has become difficult to face surgery. The recovery doesn't bother me but the surgery has me on edge. It was very difficult for me to face surgery last summer but Dr Haben was aware of my nerves and they slipped me something that removed all memories of them giving me the drug up to the point of waking in the recovery room. Voice your fears to the doctors and they can reduce the bad memories so you will be able to face any additional surgeries you might require.
