I have experienced a wave of emotion and anxiety. Did anyone else deal with anxiety and fear in the lead up to surgery?

My fear of living more of my life not feeling whole outweighs the fear I’m feeling now. However, I must admit I am quite scared. I also feel sorrow/ mourning the loss of my natural erection forever( even though it’s already limited). Being only 38 years old and doing this is hitting me hard.


Just basically want to know if anyone else experienced fear and sorrow once surgery was confirmed and how they dealt with it.



absolutely normal - you're going with top notch surgeon so rest assured. Complications can happen but at least you have a surgeon that's seen it all and can help optimize your result.
