Take deep breaths, and maybe a couple of drinks and/or tranquilizers every day until it's over.
I had lasix and it's nothing. They will give you a valium if you feel very nervous.

They will sedate me, for sure. I am such a wimp, had to be put to sleep to have my eyelids done.

I don't have any advice but the ones that I've known that have had it done seem to do very well afterward. I'm sure that you'll do fine but I'll say a prayer for you so you won't be afraid and that everything goes well. Hugs!!

 , in order for your ins. company to cover it, they have to submit pictures, so they take it before you open your eyes completely, so it looks like the lids are really sagging.You look like a monster for a month or six weeks but it is worth it. A lot of people told me that I look younger.

Keep us updated. Sometimes when you know you need to have something done too far in advance, you just get more anxious.
We're here for you.
