New here!

Hey All!  So I am new here and i am excited after about 8 Long Months I finally have a date!  I am so excited I can barely contain myself!  My big day is April 19th!  Seems like forever but I know it will be here b4 i know it!  Does anyone have any tips or pointers for me while in the hospital and home for the first few days??  Ohh and my surgeron is Dr V...  Umm cant spell his last name it is very long!  But I like him alot!   I will be back with posts I am sure!!    Have a great night!

Hello, I also have Dr.V and my surgery is on Monday 4/5, I think from reading different post here and going to support groups and reading all the material given to me by Dr.V's office I think I am as prepared for this as anything I have ever done. I was told that I wouldn't need anything in the hospital everything I would need would be provided so I will just bring myself,,  that's enough crap to drag around, if I need anything else I will ask My DW to bring up, oh ya the only thing I will be taking is my I-POD shuffle, I don't leave home without, I hate noise when I sleep.

Well good luck with your up-coming surgery I hope all goes well.
