  6. I think i was mentally better prepared. It is not that bad. The key is keep ur self hydrated, walk walk and walk. Pain will be there but that is what we are opting for. Its only 5 days for me but i am super excited about future. Best of luck and always remember this something we want Desparately.
  7. I had mine on 21 June. See on the other side with newer u.
  8. Clear fluid draining from incisioms is quite normal. However if the fluid changes colour or has odour then please go to ER. By the way, no harm in talking to Doc.
  9. Thanks guys. Called up clinic and they say may be due nerve compression as I was sleeping lying down all the time. Advised me to sleep on sides and walk.
