Hi everyone, I live in Fountain Inn and I will be having surgery August 28th in Spartanburg. I am so excited. I can't believe that it is really happening. My insurance company said that they will pay 100%. I praised the Lord for that!!! I had my Greenfield filter put in this past Friday so now it really does seem real. My surgeon said that he doesn't always put the filter in but because I have lymphedema he would feel better if I had it. I was just wondering if any of you had Dr. Ross as your surgeon. I have really enjoyed reading all of your messages, to the pre-ops especially. You all are really a great group. It's nice to know that you've got someone to talk to who has "been there, done that". I look forward to "talking" with you. Hope you all have a great day (what's left of it)! Donna
