I have a few questions about the first few days after surgery: 1. Do you need a support person with you 24/7 during the day after surgery? The second day? 2. I have heard people say that a support undergarment (like Spanx) will help with pain the first few days. Do you need the Spanx that are super high waisted or just the regular underwear Spanx? 3. Can you sleep on your side after surgery, or just on your back? 4. When can you shower after surgery? Thanks, Leslie

So...I am in the early stages of this process. I know that Aetna requires a waiting period, but I have heard both 6 months and 3 months. Does anyone have any personal experience with Aetna POS II and can shine some light on this? Thanks, Leslie

Thanks for your reply. I am hoping for three months. I would really like to have this done over the summer while my daughter is out of school. It will be hard to manage otherwise........the hospital is about 90 minutes away. Leslie
