You are in the hands of one of the finest DS surgeons in the world! Hope you can attend some of his support meeting-they're great. Check on his web site for time and locations. I go to the SF meetings whenever I can.

There is a smaller meeting in San Jose that is a great group. Have ou been to the new online  DS support group? Some posters have it in their signature line.
The meeting in SF is in the same hospital as you will be having surgery and I would reccomend your attending in Feb before your DS. It is very uplifting to be around so many success stories.

the San Francisco meeting with Dr. Rabkin is the second Wednesday evening of each month. Arrive early to meet some experianced DSers. We're friendly Here is the info:

The other web support group is better with more of our "vets" available for advice. there is a thread for the many having the DS in February. Look for it and make some ne friends.
