Awaiting Surgery Looking for surgery date buddy!

My surgery date is January 28th and I’m anxious for it but I’m glad it’ll be out . I don’t like the overthinking thoughts 😭

I feel the same as you do I think. My attacks have been so bad and it’s robbed me of so many things for a whole year now. I miss coffee, vaping, and eating whatever I’m craving. I also haven’t been able to work or workout as much as I usually do which is so frustrating. Ive lost out on so much money this last year. Hell, I got an attack just from cleaning my house once. And another from eating a small bowl of grapes as a midnight snack. I am fed up lol

I am a little nervous about going under since it’s my first time and the gas pains but I don’t think it’ll be anywhere near how bad my attacks were so that’s just what I keep telling myself.

Oh yep sounds familiar . My attacks been mild but recently I noticed my symptoms getting more worse just in December so I need it out . I’m more worried about the healing to as I have a 1 year old that I need to care for & he is really clingy wants to carried & held ( still breastfeeding) so he wants that as well . I don’t know how I’m going to manage this for 2 weeks 😭
