Decemberbee45 3 Posted April 1, 2013 Mine is scheduled for April 25th. I'm super excited but nervous too! I'm on the 10th and feel exactly the same way...very excited and nervous, too. I can't wait or the 10th to get here, but am scared, too. This has all happened kind of fast. I saw the dr last fall and then put off seeing the psychiatrist. I finally decided to see him and made an apt for Mar 25th. A few days later, the surgeons office called and BAM I'm scheduled for surgery! Kind of a whirlwind after a lot of feet dragging! I am ready tho. So glad that I don't have to go thru this alone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It felt like it took forever to get approval. But it finally was . I got a call last friday to schedule my surgery date and now I can't wait I want the 25th to be here. Lol. Good luck with yours, keep me posted on how it goes 1 Decemberbee45 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
