Need to talk to people who have had the surgery - I need 5 contacts

I am in the process of checking off my checklist leading up to the surgery and one of them requires that I talk to 5 people who have had the surgery. Please e-mail me at [email protected]. I thank you. I am pursuing the surgery in Florida rather than GA because no-one in my city does it and I have a daughter in FL whom I can stay with for a bit after the surgery. At this point in time I am looking at May unless I can get insurance approval earlier. Thanks, Meg

Meg, I am only 6 weeks post op, but spent 9 mos preparing for this surgery with a 2" notebook of information and articles. I would be more than happy to help you out. What information do you need??? cag

Hi Meg - my name is Angel & I am 1 month post-op. I would be glad to chat with you any time. I reasearched this procedure for a couple of years before I actually took the step, so I may be able to give you some good input. I am very happy with my decision & have had some good days & bad days which might be helpful on your contact info. Feel free to write me with any questions/info you may need My email address is: [email protected]. Hope to hear from you soon
