Hello!

So I waited until I had my surgery date before really jumping into this forum. I'm happy to say that I will be starting my new journey in February. I wi**** could be sooner but I had to schedule around my time off work, as I am a teacher and our school is year round.

I have lots of questions in the waiting and I'm excited to share my journey with this really cool group of strangers!

Cheers!

Welcome! It's shocking how much you will learn from reading here. The best advice I can give is 1) take all advice here with the tiniest grain of salt (everyone's journey is different), and 2) when in doubt, ask your surgeon (you're paying them enough that you get to be a pest!)

 

Best of luck on your journey! February will be here before you know it!

Thanks for the advice!

I've read some real horror stories of those trying to get approved. My process thus far has been shockingly easy so I'm hoping the good luck continues!
