Hi Katie, sending prayers and happy thoughts to you.  Get ready it's wild and crazy, yet very exciting ride.  What type of surgery or you having?

Just a couple of words of advice/suggestions:  Take your pre-op pictures (front, back, side) and your measurements, you will want those later even if you don't want to know now.  Also back chap stick and a pillow for the ride home after surgery.

If you have any questions, ask someone here is usually around to help out when needed.

Hi Katie,

Welcome to the TMB.  I sent you a friend request.  Please tell us about you.  Who's your doctor?  What kind of surgery are you having?  And anything else you want to share. 

The TMB will give you lots of love and support.  The people on this board are kind, supportive, knowledgable and willing to share.  Feel free to ask anything you need to know or have questions about.  Don't worry about what anyone will think.  We're all pretty open and honest.  Just jump right in and enjoy the experience.  Remember, we've all been where you are.

Hello!  Dr McDaniels in Victoria is my surgeon.  I am having ROux N Y in the a.m. at 7- first of the morning.

I am really nervous.  I went to a group meeting THursday with a gal tha has had a really rough time.  I hope she recovers soon- but I hope more, that I don't have that type of recovery.

I have received advice so quickly from all of you.  thank you so much!
