Surgery Friday 9/20, Anxious

Hey guys & gals, I am 25 years old and my surgery is this Friday at Northside with Dr. Paul Macik. I am nervous and extremely emotional- not sure why. Does anyone have an advice on what to expect post-op day 1? Also, I am worried about hair loss and excess skin. Any advice or tips?

    Congrats! I am in 2 weeks with Dr. Macik! Please post to let me know how it goes! As far as the hair loss, the only thing is get that Protein as soon as you are able. Seems like the best way to combat it. Also, Biotin...but I haven't bought any, not sure if I plan to...I have too much hair, right now I could stand to lose a few strands! lol
