Hi love, this fellowship

In the next couple weeks I’m going through an operation. For the first time in 23 years, they told me they would have to give me a narcotic while I’m under the knife. I have a lot of fear. Because I’ve heard a lot of horror stories that that go out after an operation.

Speaking it out loud and getting it out of my head and out of my heart. With 23 years, clean and sober. This is how I constantly stay clean and sober. It’s my fears out to the friends in the fellowship and asked for help.

Hoping it all goes smoothly for you. You seem to be in the right mindset from what I have read and think you will handle it well.

I recently underwent surgery in which a narcotic was needed post op. It really helped me to reach out to my sponsor as well as having a trusted family member manage my medication. I hope the best for you!

Thank you I already specified that I did not want any pain meds prescribed. My fear is waking up and wanting more and having the phenomenal of a craving awaken.
