My surgery is tomorrow morning Monday the 17th! I’m sooo nervous yall!!! I’m scared of the Anesthesia. I guess also the pain afterwards. Do you think if I ask they’ll give me something for anxiety when I get there? I’m very prepared for optimal healing. I’ve got the humidifier, groceries, jaw ice packs, wedge pillow, exc. how did you guys calm your nerves the night before and morning of?
I get my tonsils repo’d in a week and I want to do the most now beforehand to ensure a speedy recovery. I’ve seen all the post of what to do and buy for recovery but I want to know if anyone has any suggestions for things I could eat or do now to ensure my body heals fast and strong? Also does anyone know if they were able to take their iron supplements leading up and during recovery? I’m also going to be using this as a great time to quit vaping all together bc I’d be dumb if I didn’t take this perfect opportunity to. TIA
I went to the doctor for symptoms like pounding heart, hair loss, anxiety, fatigue exc I thought my thyroid was acting up but that came back fine except my hashimotos. However my iron came back a little low. My ferritin was fine at 71. My iron being 44. Hemoglobin fine as well. Ferritin did drop from 112 six months ago if that means anything. My doctor wants me to start taking an iron supplement every other day for the next 4-6weeks but I’m having much anxiety that I don’t need it and heard scary things about taking it when not necessary. Anyone have any insight or advice?
