- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.

20 Days pre-surgery. I'm nervous. I've been gathering things to make sure that I will be able to do what I can for myself cause I'm not sure how much help I am actually going to receive from my family. Arranging a ride to and from has given me enough greif alone to make me wonder if I can do this. My boyfriend stepped up the other day and offered to pick me up from the surgery - but he says it's too much for him to sit there all day, I understand his reasons. It was just enough to know that he would be there for me if I needed, it's all I had to hear from him.
Pre-Op appointment is on the 11th, so is my final appointment with my surgeon prior to the surgery. I just want to meet with him to discuss my expectations and find out more about possible limitations I may be under.
I'm worried, stressed, and a little aprehensive about what I am going to be doing. Not the greatest economical times to be taking out a chunk of money for this sort of personal use, plus gambling with my employement for probably what will turn out to be 2 weeks plus. We will see. I will post again after my pre-op and final surgical appointment next week. Almost there!
*On a side note, I am at 153 today! That is room enough for celebration!

Ok, nix what I stated before. LOL (not really) Got broken up with today, although he states that he will be there for me either way. Just another emotional hurtle to overcome, again.
Got the Pre-Op Appointment out of the way...
Got the Pre-Op Appointment out of the way yesterday, paid the costs for the surgery yesterday as well. Final cost, $7650. Felt weird in a way, dropping that much money.
Spoke with my surgeon about a few concerns that I had found on here and read about from other women. My surgeon seems almost over confident in his abilities - almost assuring me that dog ears wont happen, facia tightening will not keep me from doing yoga, and other things. It's okay, I'm wracking it up to the fact that I am likely just extremely nervous and overthinking things as usual. 13 Days. Isn't that the title of a horro movie? Ugh.
Weight as of yesterday: 155 at the Dcotors office, 157 at the Surgeons office, and 153 at home. Love the fluctuations in all three scales.
Provider Review
My doctor is wonderful. His facilities and staff are superb at what they do, the atmosphere was the most comfortable I have experienced. So far my results have been great, the staff has been excellent at responding to my needs! Highly recommended.
