Hi, waiting is the hardest thing, a few days will not have made any difference, who knows how long you have had it, but Like all of us you just want everything done fast, and then one day you will look back and won't believe where the time went, life becomes a schedule of appointments have you got the my journey kit from bcna it's invaluable, so is the pamphlet on the website I wish I could fix it, great for loved ones. This is the scariest thing ,fear of the unknown, but you do get there, for me it's 17 months later and all pretty good. I lost 8 kg just worrying, the thought of food and that nagging in the gut can be overwhelming. Like the others say one day at a time, I'm sure you will feel better once you see the surgeon.
