GoochMonster 64 Posted July 3, 2013 Hi, I just joined the site a few days ago. I'm WAY pre-op. My insurance requires a 6 month program first, but I'd love to chat or meet up with someone who's either had the surgery or is pre-op and waiting like me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
