GOT MY DATE!
I got my surgery date.....it's Monday Sept. 17th. I am currently on week two of my pre-op diet and it really sucks, but it will be worth it in the end.
Any hospital stay tips or tricks?

I would recommend taking a pillow with you. The ones at the hospital are flat and besides, when you travel home having a pillow between you and the seatbelt is a blessing.
