How do I do this.
Not sure how to handle this. Having to lose both my breasts seems so cruel after everything else I have gone through in the past few years. Can't get my head around more surgery and losing more of .....
Hi Kez, all the very best for tomorrow I will be thinking of you. I think you should definitely ask for a pre med. I did and it helped a lot. Even made me sleepy either that or the lack of sleep the night before. If I had of gone into theatre as planned I would have been asleep from it. Unfortunately they were running late so it had worn off by the time I went down. But it still calmed me I believe. You will need to let them know as soon as you get to hospital that you want one. Don't be afraid to let all of the medical staff know how you are feeling. I made sure my anaesthetist, surgeon and nurses knew I was petrified. As a result I had a pre med and when they finally did get me into theatre they had me asleep in no time and were very kind and caring during the process. They do this every day and it is absolutely normal to be feeling this way - everyone does. This time tomorrow night I am hoping you will be relieved the surgery is over and not too devasted at losing your breasts. Fingers crossed you get some new ones down the track. Thinking of you Lara xx
