Hi I am just thinking about having this done going to a seminar on June 26th

Hi Gina,

Get all the information you can at the seminar and visit this site anytime to get more information on our experiences. This is a life-changing experience - good luck!

Hello Gina, thinking about it is a good 1st step. It is not something to take lightly. You have to have will, determination and a REAL desire to follow through after having the surgery. It can be your best friend or worst nightmare. This is a wonderful site to visit and talk with great people. Some of the stories are really sad and you will also get some real laughs. Some of the challenges and trials and testimonies can shed light on the process for you. Remember, there are no dumb questions, it is just dumb not to ask! Good luck in your search for answers...we are here to help!

Gina,

I've yet to get it done myself, but one thing I did do was go to several seminars and not limit myself to what one physician has to say. But most of all good luck......my consult is June 19th and hoping for surgery in July!

It was at the seminar that I decided to have the procedure. IT was so informative and I just knew it was for me. Good luck and everyone here will help you as much as we can!!!
