    Hi,
    Got my op on Saturday (I’m not with mya but love these forums). I am absolutely freaking out! I’ve not told many people so feel like I can’t even rant at somebody haha. Having a BA and a TT. I’ve been terrified for months about the aesthetic despite reassurances from some of you lovely girls on here! I keep thinking what if I don’t wake up? I’ve got two kids to leave motherless! And then – what if I wake up mid op! I know it’s rare but – well! Saw my surgeon today about sizes, I’m still confused about what to go for… i told him he must make sure he has a good nights sleep on Friday 😉

    I’m thinking it must be normal to start questioning everything?! Keep looking in the mirror and thinking ah am I that bad, do I really neeeeeed it? Obv I think I do or I wouldn’t have thought about it for years, must be nerves. Then I keep thinking hmm.. The washer is starting to leak, that must be a sign like a bad omen! Haha Sound like nutter now don’t I!

    I just really want it to be Saturday night and be awake and alive!

    Sorry if this scares anyone else who is having their op soon and are dealing with it much better than me! Just needed to vent! Xxx

    Hi Catherine

    I think its perfectly normal for you to be having these thoughts, I’ve already had them, having them and I’ve only seen surgeon today an got a date. I asked him about not waking up after anesthetic and he said its never happened with cosmetic surgery, I’m not going to research it either. You will be fine though, this time next week you’ll be happy it’s over with and happy you’ve had it done. Xx

    That’s reassuring that its not happened with cosmetic surgery… I’m trying to stay off google or that will finish me off altogether! Thanks Hun, want it over!

    Good luck with yours – when’s the date? Xx

    You will be fine honestly and yes stay off Google.
    I’ve been given 2 dates 10/14th Sept but got to wait till back in work Friday and see what they say about me having time off, so my coordinator from MYA is phoning me Friday so I can give definite date..
    Let us know how your op goes chick. Xx

    I had these thoughts too. I think it’s normal. I was more worried about being put to sleep than the actual op. Honestly you will be fine. I had abit of a panic in my head when I went in the op room and they put the needle thing in my hand then they asked me if I wanted some oxygen while I went to sleep, the next minute I was waking up and it was all over. It’s mad, I couldn’t even tell I’d had a tube down my throat or anything which I thought I would lol xx
