it’s finally happening! but nervous

okay, so my surgery date is June 29th. I’ve decided to go with Dr. Ginger Slack and i’m so so nervy. did anyone else feel super anxious as soon as things started to set in motion? I’m so sure I want this, but I can’t tell if i’m anxious because of the surgeon itself or because once I have the procedure how it goes is completely out of my control.

like, I can’t exactly operate on myself. putting so much trust into what I’m going to look like after this in a surgeon and just my body’s own healing process is so anxiety inducing. did anyone else also feel this way? did you feel less anxious leading up to the procedure or was it constant anxiety? kinda feels like i’m walking up to a guillotine

and does anyone else have anything to say on Dr. Ginger Slack? i’ve read reviews about her, both in this subreddit and the top surgery one and everyone says she’s wonderful. i’m just still so anxious regardless oh my goodness
