So 4 days till my surgery. The time is going by so slowly, i just want it to be over with now. I am feeling very overwhelmed and as hard as this is for a man to admit, scared out of my mind. I dont think i am scared of the surgery just being away from my daughter and wife, and all of those stupid "what if" questions running through my head. I have been in a lot of pain over the last few days and am just ready for it all to stop! The surgery will be a combo of
open and lapo surgerys so they say i will be in the hospital for 4-10 days depending on how i heal. I will be off work with no paycheck for 4-12 weeks this is also playing with my stress levels which inturn make my crohn's even worse, it is such a vicious never ending cycle.
I am new to the forum and have really taking to it. I wanted to thank all of you who have responded to my questions with most helpful information. It is nice to know that I am not the only one to feel this way. Good luck and best health to all, and i will keep you updated on how everything is going.
