You guys have been great so far.
I've heard good/bad stories about "the big H" - so I'll look at it with the viewpoint of glass-half-full and just know she'll get through it flying high.

My wife has had a history of issues. OCD, manic, panic attacks, migranes (years ago, before kids). No doubt all this is mildly brain-chemical. Now, one thing that I did was help her get on a vitamin supplement program. She also got off various meds that she took on-going for pain.

I look at it like this - at one time for a few days she used a walker and had a lot of numbness. Now, she's doing great without the meds, living a full life and going into this operation with high hopes (and a little anxiety). Couldn't be much better, really. Just want to put the icing on the cake - that's my take. When I say "I want to get it done" - I just mean "let's get on with life and get through this up-coming hurdle". She's thinking the same thing, really, and wants to end the pain and get on with life. Just that her anxiety popped up recently and we're getting through what comes along with that.
