Is it weird that I feel more nervous for those appointments than for the surgery itself at this stage? bleurgh.
No, not weird at all. Those appointments are always bleurgh to me.. You have my sympathy. :hug:
I assume anything I can do to stay as 'stress-free' as possible before the surgery will serve me well in the long run.
Yep, you got that right.
Though this is surgery that you need and want - your body and brain are in for a shock.
Take comfort things to hospital too.
Be prepared for some days where you may feel a bit flat, likely that it will in part the anesthetic which may have weird effects on your mind too. It takes a while for just that alone to be eliminated by the body.
