I got a pillow from shoppers on mountain road in Moncton the one close to Moncton hospital it at a 45 degrees and it keeps you from sleeping flat it's like the way you sleep in the hospital at a angle it help in case you have any reflex.

Topic: Finally got my surgery date May 12

After waiting over 5 years, I finally have my surgery date with Dr. Savoie. I went for my blood work, ECG and chest x-ray this morning at my own hospital and then meet with the Anesthetist next Tuesday, start Boost on April 28th. You blink and things start to move.

Thanks for posting that.  It is one less thing to worry about, the pain afterwards.  It sounds really minimal.  The pain after my tt was because if I tried to lay down on the bed, it pulled the skin and that hurt.  And getting up was bad for that reason.  I wasn't cut at all through the muscle.

Topic: RE: going crazy

i think you will find that there is alot of great information on this topic on the main forum and on the new brunswick forum, if you go back a few posts there is one called thinning hair i believe and there are many posts before that.

i am just suggesting this as i am too lazy to type my info all over again lol. i also take tons of vitamins and biotin but it was no use, i lost most of it, no worries, i would take that over the weight and though it was very sad for me, would do it again ten times over

congratulations on your one year surgeversary

:)

you will have to let us know how your specialist appointment goes and what suggestions they may have (would love some pointers) if it is not hormone related.

cheers

hi tookayo

only one more week and it's your turn to join us as after surgery gang 9bls that's great keep it up the shakes aren't bad I think the chocolate one is the best. the hospital staff in Moncton are awesome I was in ICU unit because I'm a dietbetic and they had to watch my sugar  but it was nice private room free tv and two nurses to help you Dr B only keeps you over night one night if all your test come back good they let you go home and they don't rush you out the door I do recommend you get a pain shot before you leave for the drive home due to the bumpy roads it will help with the discomfort.
