Well the nerves are starting to set in. I know I have nothing to worry about but I know every surgery is major surgery and the whatif's are starting to rear their ugly head. What if all the food I ate yesterday made me gain too much weight and he cancels the surgery? What if I can't continue to not smoke? What if I look to wierd without a belly button? I know that one is way too wierd but it is something I am wondering about. When I went for my appointment with the doctor he told me that I may come out on the other side of surgery without a belly button. He may not be able to put it back on. Well it's not like I'm going to be wearing a bikini or anything LOL. What if I get another staph infection? That is the main one I am obsessing about. Last time I had major surgery on my belly region I got a staph infection. So that is why I am obsessing about it. The last 2 surgeries I have had on my belly region have ended with me getting a staph infection and they were both so nasty looking and smelling that and it seemed that it took forever for it to heal. The staph I got when I had my gastric bypass took almost 6 months to heal. My scar looks very funky but it is going to go bye bye when they do the surgery tomorrow so I don't have to worry about looking at the funky scar anymore.
So those of you that read this before my surgery pray that I don't get a staph infection again.
