Then this Friday marks 3 weeks from Surgery date. October 27th is the date.
I'm crossing my I's and Q's and T's and S's.........that everything goes swell.
If not, I'm gonna slap my Mom. It's her fault. Yea, that's who I'm blaming it on!!!
Honestly, I'm slightly concerned about getting enough time off from work......and that's it.
Just a slight neurotic twitch ![](http://images.obesityhelp.com/mbgraphics/emoticons/crazy.gif)

"goes swell" lol. good choice of words. it's been one week since mine and i'm still swollen!
hey here a good piece of advice i didn't come across until too late... if you don't have a recliner, you can rent one (of course, i just didn't think of it) at one of those rental places for a week or two. It will come in very handy as the first few days it's very difficult to get in and out of bed.
good luck, Stacey.
