Sooner than expected

Aug 21, 2010

 They threw me a curveball when they moved by surgery up by two days. So Tuesday is the big day. Right now it's Saturday night...Friday afternoon I visited the surgeon He says he thinks I can return to physical therapy within a week of the operation!
Posted that here on OH and at least one person thought it was a little overly optimistic  Better that than the other way.  

I don't have any doubts this is the right thing to do. I told my sister I am pissed off because I am scared. I am never scared of the dentist but I am scared of this. Scared of pain, scared of anethesia, scared of complications.  Just have to prepare to feel under the weather.

I called the surgeon's office today because the adapter on my c-pap cracked. He said not to worry too much because I can probably get another one at the hospital.

Had a beer tonight...probably my last one for at least nine months. The surgeon said it was okay. He is a really good doctor.  He does revisions for other doctors and also operates on those who are too fat for the surgery.   

As noted, he is very confident and direct. I am hoping for the best.
