Good afternoon everyone,
I thought I should probably post and say hello since I've been " lurking" for a few months now.
I'd like to say thanks to all of you who post so openly and honestly! It really helps people who are just in the beginning stages of the process. I've learned so much from all of you 
I haven't got a surgery date yet but have been through all of the classes and have had all of my tests done.
The doctor has me on a 12 week high dose vitamin D to get levels up so I hope to get my date when I see him August 1st.
It is so nice to have people to go through this with ... it's a bit less scary this way.
Welcome W.I.P. I have been posting and reading here for over 4 years and I am still learning. Even today I learned something about myself because of a post.
Wishing you great success on this journey.
