Welcome and let us know if we can be of any help.

Welcome! If you have lurking for a bit then you know that you can find all kinds of answers and help here. Explore the website - there is much here. If you have a question that you cannot find the answer - feel free to ask away. There are many with long term success who have much wisdom to pass along. When it comes closer to your surgery time look for a group of folks having surgery the month you are having it - usually someone has started a thread. It really helps to have a bunch of people all going through the same thing at the same time. Good luck!
