Hi! I just had my surgery on 11/7/11 and am looking for some support from people that have been through this. I had my surgery at UCLA and they only have support groups once a month. Does anyone have any other groups to suggest?

Hello and welcome to the losers bench! Facey Medical (on Sepulveda Blvd. in Mission Hills) has a support group meeting twice a month (2nd & 4th Wednesdays) although I'm not sure if they'll have one next week the day before Thanksgiving. You don't need to be a Facey patient to attend the meetings. Please let me know if you need more information. All the best to you as you begin this incredible journey.
