Just had to cancel surgery
Hi everyone!
I could really use a little support here. I was supposed to have my reduction surgery on 7/6 but I ended up getting a cold (prob a sinus infection)
I reached out to my surgeon and he decided it would be best to cancel the procedure. Now, I obviously agree it is better to be safe than sorry, but I am heartbroken.
I put so much preparation into this surgery and even had my mom coming into town to take care of me. I feel guilty like it’s my fault I got sick. Of course, I didn’t mean to but it’s hard not to blame yourself.
I’m hoping we can reschedule for later next week like 7/17 because any later than that I would have to wait another two months since I’m going on a trip. I also don’t love my job but my insurance is through them so I’m scared to leave and start this process over completely.
Anyways, any kind words or if you’ve experienced this yourself lmk. I’m sure I’m not the only one, but I’m definitely feeling alone right now.
