Anxiety about being put to sleep!!! Started by: Sophie Jude

Hiya Sophie, I loved it !!! (Weird I know) , she literally said night night Sarah , felt a little woozy feeling for like 3 seconds and woke up with boobs !! Haha , it happened so fast I didn’t have time to think about it , I woke up thinking where the hell am I , but I felt great after , ate a panini and drank 2 cups of tea , I suffer really bad with anxiety but I just kept thinking boobies and I was fine, honestly it’s over so quick you’ll wonder what all the fuss was about x

Hi honey. Completely normal to be anxious about GA. I see it on a daily basis as I work in a hospital but still had my own anxieties around it.

I was Asleep before I even knew they’d given me anything. The anaesthetists were absolutely amzing and it was the best sleep I had. Even dreamt I’d gone to hospital to have my boobs done.

If you let them know you are feeling anxious about they’ll do their very best to put you at ease. Xxxx

Hey lovely
This was my big worry when I first booked my appointment. I have suffered with sever anxiety in the past and was worried it would resurface but reading everyone elses experiences has really helped me to rationalise things. My surgery day is now tomorrow and although I am nervous I am way more excited to meet my new best friends!

I too am anxious about the GA as I’ve never had any anaesthetic before but my mum is allergic to anaesthetic. She has had local and general and had strong delayed reaction to both, on all 4 times. I’m not sure if anaesthetic allergy runs in families? But just going to make the anaethnetist aware and fingers crossed I’ll be ok
You’ll be ok too, but totally understand your anxiety x

I have my surgery on 19th July and I’m so nervous about the GA! I’ve never been put to sleep before and I just keep panicking what if I don’t wake up! ???? it sounds so silly but think it’s because it’s all so unfamiliar!
