Question:
Anybody get real sick before surgery?

I have surgery in less than 2 weeks, for about a month i have been really scared and not able to sleep real good. Now starting about a week ago, i have just been really sick to my stomach not able to keep anything down at all! i mean nothing. when i get through i am hungrey again...but when i eat i cannot keep it down, does anyone have any advise or am i alone on this one?    — Amanda G.

Hi Amanda! If you do not have a virus, the flu, or anything like that, my guess would be nerves. I can imagine getting jittery before surgery could have this effect. Does anyone else agree? I wish you luck! Just remember...There will be a whole new you on the other side! I am happy for you and cannot wait until I get there. =)
