Congrats. Very happy for you! Hope all goes well. I know that's a few months from now but make sure you prepare yourself and the things you might need when after surgery and try to f et estrogen patches, you will need it maybe 2 weeks after surgery just in case you have severe menopausal symptoms. But always ask the nurses or Dr Chettawut first before taking any of it because hormones can cause deep vein thrombosis which can cause blood clot like stroke and stuff so ask first ok.

Other than that I'm super excited for you. Update when you can :)

i'm up in less than 2 weeks. Frightened and anxious here

Everything will be fine as long as you haven't taken blood thinners, hormones, and haven't smoked 1 month before surgery then there shouldn't be any complications. And on laxative day, don't eat any solid foods so there's no infections while they're doing surgery on you.

Update:

Just about 3 months left. So close yet seemingly still so far away! ugghh, the day cannot come soon enough! June 12!

Just about everything is taken care of. I got my passport, my visa came but they put the wrong entry dates, so we have to do that over. I sent my letters to Chett and got them approved. Pretty much just waiting now and doing the tests when the time comes. I'm going with my mom, we're going a few days early to sight see just a bit for a few days.

Please get here faster, June 12!!! :icon_chainsaw:

And GL Sarah! I know, it's still long enough that the realization of what we're going to go through, particularly recovery-wise, hasn't completely hit yet. I'm trying to stay in as good shape as possible to recover quicker, but I know that it can be a long road. Too bad we won't be at the same hotel, but I hope all goes well for you!

I guess we'll be going back to the hotel around the 10th. You can come before your surgery and see what's in store for you, if you like. Not sure if that would help or hurt though! lol

3 months will pass by quickly although it won't be quickly enough  :) I would suggest you spend the time preparing things such as you post op viewing material. The Cottages should have Cable but I can assure you currently mine is not working and they have removed the viewing card from the box so they are not planning on it working anytime soon.

If you don't sleep lying on your back currently I'd advise you get some practice in because that's the thing I've struggled with the most since my op last Tuesday. Chetts staff as well as the hotel are well versed in how to deal with you and you'll find that treatment to be wonderful.

Good Luck when the time comes

Hugs

Sorcha  ;D
