Arts137 1,811 Posted July 11, 2013 Some have nausea, some not so much. Let folks know (I assume you are in the hospital) since you DO NOT want to get dehydrated! It WILL get better... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Arts137 1,811 Posted August 28, 2013 How did you like Dr. Peters? He was great (all three in the group are). PMRI staff were great, surgery at Christiana and all staff on 7E were super. I have no complaints and I am a happy camper!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Missylaneous 27 Posted August 29, 2013 woo hoo! That is good to hear! I just got my medical clearance from PMRI. I am anxiously/nervously awaiting insurance approval. How large of a pouch did Dr. Peters give you? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
