Double mastectomy tomorrow...starting to stress :(

Tomorrow is the day and I'm really starting to freak out. I don't know why - everyone says the sx is easier than the chemo, and I managed that pretty well (didn't miss a day of work, went on 2 road trips, and 2 out of state trips).

I am second guessing the double decision and second guessing the PS. Tues she started talking about expanders and radiation, when I have never been scheduled for radiation and we had an hour long conversation about immediate reconstruction at our first visit. I just don't like not knowing exactly what to expect and worrying about getting a surprise when I wake up (ie expanders)...

I also have a list a mile long of things I wanted to get done ahead of time and I have a full day at work. Not sure how to shake this uneasiness, sadness, and anxiety I'm feeling right now
