It's a big mix of emotions just before- you waitd all this time for it to happen- and now that it is almost here...the more your mind swims. A lot of us have been there- just get yourself all prepared for your hospital stay and you post op things in order as well. It's hard sometimes to get things done when you are healing.

Good luck and speedy recovery

Hello there. I agree that we all have such an array of emotions as we go through this pre-op waiting period. I know for me, it ranged from excitement to questioning if I was crazy to be going forward with the surgery. Be sure to seek out support from family, friends and here. You will get there. Before you know it you'll be waking up from surgery and making your way to the loser's bench. Wishes of wellness for your surgery day and recovery.

Good luck with your surgery, while its a ton of emotions before hand it is all worth it afterwards.

I PROMISE it will be surgery day before you know it.

The surgery prep woman are SO nice and they really make you feel at ease and let's face it, Dr. Pohl is the most amazing surgeon EVER! [i'm 3 weeks out and my surgery scars are SOOO minimal]

I used my last couple days before surgery to really post-op-afy my house. Made it as comfy and clean as possible. GOt all my proteins ready and everything i was going to need when i got home, packed my bag for the hospital [books, nintendo ds etc] and of course talked on here.

See, a day already passed!!!!

CONGRATS!!! :)
