Slipknot, sorry to hear you just smoked your last bowl for a while, and I'm even sorrier to hear of your upcoming surgery. Do you mind if I ask if it's big surgery--like heart or brain or something major and open? (as opposed to minimally invasive day surgery done with laparascopes or arthroscopes). Actually, come to think of it, anyone who's having surgery considers it big. Only someone close to the medical field would categorize it otherwise. Luckily, once you've been through it once, you'll be an old hand at it and will not feel as anxious if you ever have to do it again.

Bear this in mind. Those doctors who are going to be taking care of you had a lot of schooling. They're smart people. And they're also in that business to help people and not hurt them. They and their nurses and assistants are well trained and are going to be totally focused on your making it through surgery and anesthesia without incident and as painlessly as possible. If you knew how totally focused they are on making sure patients do well, I suspect you'd feel less anxious. That's their job, and your health really is their top priority. Good luck to you, my friend!
