Put yourself on a "waiting list" for treatment.
Surgery scares me so much that I would almost rather s**t myself. What if they screw it up? What if it just makes it worse?
Its just that, er um, its in a sensitive area.
The most terrifying part of surgery is before it happens. I kind of laugh about being so worried beforehand, because while the recovery wasn't much fun, the whole thing wasn't all that bad looking back. And I am so happy with the results. What goes on in the mind before getting it done is a lot worse than what really happens.
As far as function afterwords, maybe they will have you on a liquid diet for a little while afterwards. Once you get over that initial pain hump that lasts 3 or 4 days (at least in my experience) the rest is downhill from there. Vicodin is good stuff.
