First Consultation

Hi all hope you are having a great Monday. So got the call today saying I can schedule my initial consultation with the surgeon and I got in tomorrow!! Woo woo! This is starting to become more real but I am very excited and determined. Anything I should be prepared for about tomorrow and any suggestions on things to ask?

    My team had a nurse who answered ALL the questions so by the time I got to the actual Dr. most everything had been answered. :wacko:
