Hello everyone. New to this sight.

Hello, I am down to setting a date for surgery. I have finally jumped through all the hoops for the insurance and am waiting for my date. I can't wait. Is there any advice for the last weeks before surgery?

Hello! I just wanted to welcome you to the site!! Congrats on jumping through all the hoops and being almost there. I have no advice as I am pre-op myself. So if anyone offers you any, I'm going to grab onto it also and put it with my notes. The weekends are sloooowwwwwww around here, it'll pick up monday a little more. The ladies here are wonderful. You'll love em all!!

Hi Susan welcome to the boards and my advice before surgery is to relax don't panic if you can. Good luck and much sucess

Susan, Looks like we are in the same boat! My date is the 12th and I'm just trying to get some things done before surgery day. My apartment is in serious need of an overhaul so I'm working on that.. I'm going to take a little break next weekend and spend some time with my boyfriend. I'm also making sure I have all the products and information I will need post-op. Suffice it to say, I know I have a lot on my "plate" right now.. but it's getting better and I know my new life starts soon!! I guess I don't have any advice.. other than to just relax and know that soon you'll be a loser!! Stef

Hello Susan I wanted to add my welcome to the bunch here Advice for this time before surgery? Just relax. Hopefully you are confident in your decision and your surgeon and his capabilities. Gather a few things you're going to want to have on hand as a new post-op. I went into nesting mode and cleaned and rearranged my entire apartment. Sure wi**** would've stayed that way. Anyways, we're all here cheering you on! Hugz, Cathy

WELCOME WELCOM WELCOME Get in all the food you want and will not be able to have after surgery was the tip that the nurse told me at my pre op testing.
