Dr. Garcia/ Any Feb 2013 Sleevers Want To Buddy Up?

Hey Everyone, I am also going with Dr. Fernando Garcia, aiming for a Feb 2013 date as well. I have been speaking with him an his staff for over a week now and am pretty confident in my decision. BUT, I have to most likely go alone. Which I REALLY REALLY REALLY don't want to do that. SOOOO, I was hoping there would be someone(persons) that wouldn't mind "buddying" up through this process. I live in the Washington DC/ surrounding areas. So it would be lovely if someone from this area is considering him during the same time. But anywhere is okay I just don't wanna do this alone. If that's cool with anyone we can go through it ll together. If interested let me know what dates because I haven't scheduled yet. Maybe we can exchange contact info.

    Two days post op and in having terrible pain at my drain site. My incisions are starting to hurt a little but as well. Can't wait for Dr. Luna to remove the drain today. Hopefully that stops the pain. On top of that I barely got any sleep. Guess I won't truly recover til I'm home in my own bed.

    Sorry to hear you're not feeling well. Hopefully you begin to feel better once the drain is removed. Are you experiencing any nausea?

    I only was nauseous the first night of surgery. Which was probably from the meds.
