Hi
Its four weeks until my thyroidectomy and I am a total bag of nerves. I suffer from really bad anxiety and I am just making myself so ill over this. I am not scared about the surgery or pain, its just the being put to sleep bit that is terrifying me. I can't explain just how scared its making me feel, I know it will go fine but my head is swimming with "what ifs". I need this surgery as I have been really ill but my anxiety has just completely taken over and I don't know if I will be able to do it when it comes to the day. I really ca't understand why I am feeling like this as I have had 2 previous surgeries under general before and was fine, not that I can remember much. I think its just my anxiety which is sbad because of all the bad stuff we have been thhrough these past few months. If anyone has any advice who has had surgery and really what to expect and maybe reassure me a bit I would be so grateful. Thanks in advance.xx
