Ok went yesterday June 15, 2012 to do my pre-op EKG and blood work. Then went to Dr, Albears office to sign consents and while going over before and after things found out I did write down they I take hormones and The Dr was out of town and the nurse he likes you to be off of them for 30 days so we will see Monday if I still get to have my surgery on June 28, 2012.

Ok just spoke with Jeri my nurse and she said it is a go yeah.
So now I start this journey I said I'm not going to get any sleep

a justible bed of my own so my husband is taking it to my
daughters house in Tampa because I live in Tavares that
is about 40 miles north of Orlando because I will be staying
with her while I'm healing and my dr office is right down the
street from my daughters house. I have my moms walker
and her shower chair so I think after I get all my other things
together I will be set yeah.

How I change over to just tummy tuck and not a revision?

Hi, when you want to review and comment on tummy tuck forum, select someones profile and see if they have comments that have "tummy tuck" in the subject line. For instance if you click on my profit you will see that I have made a post regarding tummy tucks. Then just click on someone elses who has the same subject. Hope this helps. :)
