I felt just like you did when I had my wls in February, and I feel the same way again, I am having a abdominoplasty/mammoplasty next monday the 2nd. and I keep thinking they are going to call and cancel it,I know in the back of my mind that they won't, but I still keep worrying!! don't worry just have faith, it will happen, try to keep busy,, it helps!! as for the job , just hang in there a little longer!!

Even if you do quit your job,by law you are elegible for COBRA. Which is your same insurance but you have to pay the monthy fee. It is expensive but not as expensive as self-paying.
