Had Appt with Dr. Rabkin today, Revision surgery planned for next month. So nervous
on 2/27/13 3:49 pm
I went in for my orientation with Dr. Rabkin today and it went really well. I had all of my questions answered and I am planned to hav e my surgery next month on the 28th. I went in hoping to have my surgery next month on the exact date that I got so this is surely a sign for me.
I am excited and extremely nervous because I know just how complicated revision, or as Dr. Rabkin called in conversion surgery is. I have a one in four chance of a leak, and complications, but after all my research and talking to people here on OH and other boards along with facebook I am ready for those odds because they are worth the results.
I would like some feedback on preparing myself physically and mentally for this surgery from people who have had revisions and any others as well.
I can't believe it is happening so fast. 
WOOT!!!!!! That is great!!!! Before you know it, you will be posting you are on The Dark Side!!!!!
I am excited for you!!!!!!
