I wanted to get a sense of how the surgery process has been for everyone. Did the surgery go well? Did you have a lot of pain? Were you comfortable at the hospital and supported appropriately and given medication when requested? Any information to clarify and also help those of us nervous about the surgery would be very helpful.
