Thank you everyone for you well wishes. I will try to keep everyone posted as to when I find out a specific date.

So glad you made it home & everything went well.. You are right the hospital is not a place for sleep.. Get some good rest now that you are at home..

I've been having a lot of back pain that I've never had before.. That was the one thing that I complained about after my surgery and it has continued.. I know early post-op that is has to do with positioning during surgery, but 3 months out it still hurts on a daily basis.. Also my left knee hurts a lot too.It's like a throbbing pain that last for like 15-20minutes then stops.. Before I had knee pain after standing for long periods, but now it's like out of no where it will just start hurting.. The knee pain I can deal with cause it doesn't happen all the time, but my back hurts everyday. I'm going to ask Dr. Dolan about it, but I really don't know what can be done.. I thought taking weight off was supposed to help with back & joint pain not make it worse.. Has anyone else had this problem or is it just me?

Hello Everyone, I just wanted to introduce myself. I am stationed in Germany with my hubby who is in the army. I should be having my surgery in Jan 08. Shawnna

Thanks. I have definitely been taking the pain med. every 4 hours like clockwork. That pain last night was unbearable. I am really tired though. So I am taking things pretty slow. Thanks for thinking of me.
