sunnsuds 0 Posted March 21, 2010 Congratulations to you! I am new as well-I have my pre-op this Thursday then my surgery is scheduled on 4/21. I am both nervous and excited at the same time. Sounds like we are starting on this new journey close to the same time! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BetsyB 9 Posted March 21, 2010 From my first doctor visit to the OR, it was just a bit more than 5 months; it likely would have been less, but the holidays interfered. Still, the time went quickly, and it was WELL worth the wait! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
