I haven't even thought that far yet. I guess some cute clothes would be in order, haha. How about yourself?

I'm really excited. The excitement is quickly turning into fear though. I keep having dreams where I forget I am sleeved and eat something I shouldn't and then I wake up in a panic. I guess that's strange, or who knows, maybe it's a normal amount of anxiety. I'm worried I didn't take enough time off from work (only 7 days) too. All things I can't control at this point. Guess I'll just need to take it in strides. Reading the boards has helped a lot with calming the fears. How about you? Are you excited?

How quickly did you all go back to work? Right now I'm planning on going back 7 days post op. Is that too soon? I do have a job that I stand and move quite a bit. Thoughts?

I am a veterinarian and I actually do surgery myself just on my animal patients. I'm really concerned with how soon ill be able to go back to work. Any ideas on when everyone went back and how much activity you were able to handle?? All advice is appreciated.

That's so great! Congrats to you! What a supportive husband. I hope you have a speedy recovery!

Anyone else from Houston, Texas with a similar surgery date? I'm excited, and a little terrified of the surgery part. How long did it take everyone to go back to work?? I had planned to go back day 7 post op. Is that too soon? My doc said as long as it's very light activity it should be fine.

That's so great! Mine is scheduled for June 11th, it's very comforting to know your doing so wonderful so soon after surgery. I won't lie, I'm kinda terrified about the surgery part! I hope the rest of your journey is smooth sailing!
