Hey all ...

Okay so I got the my date for surgery!!!! August 8!!! 8-8 08 Hell ya!!! LOL I just have a few concerns... I am in a wedding in Sept 20th to be exact... I don't want to be sick and only be on liquids and mush food... I will have been 6 weeks post op... do you think I will be okay to eat regular foods.. just chew.. chew... chew.. lol ... I am sooo excited... I can't wait..

Six weeks out you will be on regular foods. Until then follow your instructions very carefully. Buy yourelf a foam wedge and sleep on it on your back after surgery, it really helps. You can get them at doctor supply stores/places that sell medical supplies. Plan to spend time recuperating, but six weeks later you should be well into your new life! Good luck!

By six weeks out you should hardly even know you had surgery! I had my first fill at four weeks but I could still eat pretty much anything I wanted (and as much of it as I wanted) at six weeks. You should be fine for the wedding! Grats on your surgery and good luck.

You should be fine at 6 weeks! Good luck and keep us posted!!!

Congrats on your date! Stop by the August 2008 board and introduce yourself. We'd love to have you join us!
