BUT WHAT IF I DIE???!!!

I guess thinking about a BA makes you think about a lot of things….

Its the first operation i will have had.

Im having one due to pregnancy, my daughter is 1 and i cant help thinking….

WHAT IF I DIE!!!!

AHHHHH!!!!

Anesthetic is a risk isnt it? And what if something happens and my daughter loses her mum because of my vanity…

Its scaring me the more i think about it, i know its rare but it happens.

im quitting smoking because i know that poses more of a risk under anesthetic, but im just worrying myself!!

I had a few of the same thoughts, I think it’s just nerves, you’ll be fine, ur not under for very long at all xxx chin up

I have been having the same thoughts, as I have 2 children and never had a G/A

It must be normal to think like this.

Do you know how long the surgery is?? x

These have been my thoughts exactly, infact i am sure i have said pretty much word for word a few times and nearly cancelled my op and cried pretty much every night.

I have had general anaesthetic before when i was younger but i’m still scared as it might have changed since i was younger.

The op only lasts about 45 minutes i think so the GA is so light. I have researched so much and if you have an allergic reaction to the GA they can give you this thing (begins with d) and it reverses it, i asked my pc if they stocked it as apparently they hardly use it and it doesn’t have a long shelf life and is expensive and she said she thinks the hospital stock it (i need to double check) I was that scared i even looked into having it under local in birmingham but even they said that wasn’t completely risk free (but then what is) This is turning out to be mega long, sorry.

I know my risks of everything i have looked into it that much and you are actually at more risk dying in pregnancy or child birth and i would do that again without even thinking as im sure most would, its just because it is something for us and not directly for our kids which everything else we do in life is for them. Its completely normal to worry about this, dont worry. seems really weird me typing this when i feel so worried as well xx

I was the biggest worrier ever !!

what if i die just cos i wanted big boobies!! it’s not like i needed the op to save my life!!

BUT think about what you want!!

I lost 3 close family members mum, brother and brother in law in the last year ,,,2 within 5 days of each other…..tragic (

so i thought… i have wanted this 4 years!! life really is toooooooooooo short!!

do it and enjoy xxxxxxxxxxxxx

It takes longer to take teeth out under GA sometimes! You’ll be fine hun. If there was a risk they wouldn’t put you under x

hun i was exactly the same!!i also hv a daughter and had exactly the same fears, i had my op 10 days ago and was a complete wreck over the GA even though id had it once before when i was a teenager, i was also worried i might of somehow developed an allergy to it since! i was online everynight googling risks of GA and reasons why people would die whilst they are under, (i am the worlds biggest hypercondriact) i also spoke to my friend who is a surgical theatre nurse so sees people being put under every day! she totally reassured me and said in her 7 yrs in surgery shed never seen any major complications and that it would only really happen to people who had other underlying health problems! i know its hard to not think about it and worry but honestly dont! the way i looked at it was that if anything were to happen (and it really is very very unlikely) your in the best place, surrounded by doctors and nurses and medical experts! as soon as i woke up from my op i was like “what was all the fuss about” dafdaf is right, life is toooo short and you just have to think about what youll get at the end of it…lovely new boobies:-) i love mine soooooo much and know that every second was worth it, plus my daughter now gets a happier mummy! xx

Hi hun i was thinkin the same i havin 3 children..But i have had mine now and i am fine lol xx
