I had gallbladder surgery scheduled today. I got as far as the holding room where they insert the IV and i chickened out and said i couldnt do it. The nirse said that happens sometimes. Panic and anxiety got the best of me. Esp when i saw the gown to put on, it was a trigger than made it all too real. Ive had panic attacks and anxiety for years. Im on paxil 30mg. I feel like a big failure. Ive had gallbladder pains for years now and difestive issues for 10+ years. I have a bunch of tiny stones amd sludge in my gallbladder from the ultra sound Please anyone give me advice to actually go thru with it. Im going to reachedule this coming week sometime. First appt at 6am was awesome though and they got me right back there. I wish i had nerves of steel. :(
