Thank you everyone. I read all the posts and its sad how family and friends react to someone with PTSD. My family does not know because from past experiences I realize they would not be supportive. Plus there the ones who abused me- parents, older brother is a bully.

I'm guessing the surgeon forgot since I wrote PTSD in pre op forms, saw him a month later for surgery. No comments made. I saw an anesthesiologist a week before surgery to over those forms! He asked a bunch of questions, nothing about the PTSD.. The only thing I noticed when he was done , he backed his stool on wheels far away and then stood up. Who knows maybe that is the norm for him. Then I thought maybe to do with my PTSD. I remember shaking my head why did I write that in those forms.
