So why am I so freaking NERVOUS?! I fall asleep for a few minutes at a time, only to have insane dreams, then wake up and start thinking of the same exact stuff. This has repeated itself so many time I finally had to get up. I was sick of tossing and turning. My stomach is in knots, and I feel nauseous. I've had surgery before, although not lapband, so I know what to expect there. But this is driving me CRAZY. My husband will be getting up in about an hour to take me to the hospital, and I don't want to wake him up. I feel like I am going CRAZY.

Is this normal?!

Good luck! I am having surgery today too! Not really all that nervous, but of course I can't sleep. Have been up since 5 lol... I don't have to be there until 12:30 tho.  

Try to relax and remember all the reasons why you are doing the surgery, and all the things you wil be able to do after you lose the weight.

Best of luck,

Laurie
