So, it's down to the wire! I have finished all of the necessary pre-op requirements and am waiting for the surgery to be scheduled. I'm excited, but also extremely nervous because I don't know what to expect. I know that it will be beneficial in the long run, but I'm just worried about the associated risks. Reading everyone's reviews have really made me feel better about going forth with this. I'm gonna continue to pray on this but in the meantime, I'll hope for the best!

Hi, I live in MD (Georgia Avenue) just had mine July 13.. 10 days post op-- So many factors in this, but don't worry or stress .. I must admit I was pressed to get out of hospital (HolyCross).. and came home- I can finally sleep in a bed.. !! Feel free to ask me any questions and Good Luck!

Glad to hear that all is well with you. I'm counting down the days. I'm really nervous but I'm sure I'll be fine. what's the biggest challenge that you've had to face after the surgery if you don't mind me asking?

Biggest challenge.. Getting enough protein.. that 70grams incorporated with your overall amount of liquid to prevent dehydration.. is not a game. Also, getting a good nights rest.. in a comfortable position.. The couch is still my best option until today.. I'm 2 weeks post op today..
