Hi I am from Timberville Va and am going to get my surgery at UVA. I have been to see the doctor and he said I was a good candidate and the insurance guy said my insurance would pay for it so I am waiting on them to call me and schedule my next appointment. I have started keeping a diary and it is really hitting me what foods I will be giving up. I am ready to do it but would like to hear from others about things that might happen after the surgery-the good and the bad. That way I can be prepared. If everything goes smoothly great but if I know that it might happen, then I won't panic.
