Psychology of Surgery

Posted by Phillipa on January 21, 2008, at 13:00:01

Okay I'm not taking this litely as wondering if fear and anxiety and tiredness coming from this. Just hear me out please. Now you know I'm a lot older 61 almost 62 and should have a hysterectomy, have a cystocele , and rectocele, I figured the younger I have it done the less change of dying. So from my first marriage saved some money from sale of house in the 80's. I had my tubes tired after third and my stomach is huge since menopause and it is hurting my back my ability to excercise and like me also diabetes runs in my family and stomach fat not good. So I thought okay I'm already under and have two days in the hospital for the ob-gyn so why not do a tummy tuck at same time with the necessary lipo. The docs both said fine. My Youngest 30's said I'm too old for surgery so it's back to the nightmares. If you were me would you do it or just cancel the whole thing ob-gyn as well not an emergency but then medicaire could go out and then what? Also I would be down so to speak for six weeks but I figured do together kill two birds with one stone. Now I can't rationalize this emotionally or intellectually what would you do if it were you? Hope this dosen't trigger anyone. But I'm driving myself crazy over it. Thanks please help me by the way the T thinks that the Tummy is for women our age. I don't want boobs or things like that and don't think it will cure anxiety or depression but it would help me function long term better I think. I'm terrified. Plan and simple and some are saying my adreanals are pooped out from all the stresses I'm under won't go into them. Phillipa who desparatedly needs your help and am begging.
