I am in Tucson also. I have not had my surgery yet. Someone posted dates and places of support groups. Is this only for those who have already completed their surgery? Only certain patients of certain Drs? I was not aware there are support groups.

The only group in Tucson that is restricted is Dr. Blackstone's. All others are open to everyone.

Dr. Schwartz's is on the last Saturday of the month and is open as well.

Anyone in Tucson?
