A Newbie Jumping In

Hi Sharon, Welcome! I am "new" here too. I mean I just came over here to the SC board this past week, but I have been a member of OH for over 2 yrs now. I have found everyone here to be wonderful. I will be 2 years out May 25th. I will be happy to answer any questions you have, based on my experience and what my doctor has told me. Just remember that instructions, surgeries etc vary from doctor to doctor and nut to nut.....so not every answer that you get to a question will be the same. I live in Warrenville----near Aiken. Had my surgery done in Augusta, GA. Again, Welcome! Terri Open RNY 5/25/04 247/145 5'6"
