Congrats on your upcoming surgery. I know that you are probably nervous and anxious at the same time. Just know you are not alone, you are not the first to be nervous and you will not be the last. It is expected to be anxious, but it is a good anxiety. Take everything given to you in stride. Know that you have made a good decesion on the good days as well as the bad. Remember that you made this decesion for a healthier, better you. Believe me when I tell you the end result is WONDERFUL!!! Adrienne
Joel, Welcome to this site and good luck with your journey. Visit Dr. Heaps forum and you can get any questions you may have answered by people who have been through his surgery. I had surgery a year ago in May and cannot say enough good things about Dr. Heap and his procedure.
