It's true! It was a really good experience for me too. I'm glad someone else said it wasn't bad too. The worst part- I can't bend over just yet!

I just had surgery on Saturday. I'm miles away from home but I am thankful for good friends. How likely are leaks and are they easy to repair? I'm worried about coughing causing a leak. :-/

I was tested for leaks day after and I was fine I was told that if you have a leak it will fix itself your body repairs itself just like anything else

Thanks Biglew. I'm an overthinker (paranoid! ) so I didn't ask my doctor many questions. To be honest I would just blank out when he would talk to me.
