Good luck on your surgery. We have the same surgeon, he is a true wonder. My incision has healed really nicely. This was by far the best decision I have ever made, and I think you will feel that way too after awhile. Trust me the first couple of days are not so hot but after about a week, you start to feel better. I am almost 6 weeks post op and I haven't felt as good as I do now for 6 years now. We welcome you to the other side. Congratulations, on your surgery and on your surgeon!!!!!!!!!
