May 24 Surgery Day

So excited and nervous! Is anyone else having surgery on my date? I would like us all in one thread to give our own experiences. It'll be great! We will all be in pain at the same time. [emoji1]

I'm going to try to sleep early because I know I'll wake up at 4am as I have been everyday for the passed 2 weeks. Maybe 830pm
