    Preparing

    Hi Steelr

    You can check this thread for preparing and organising:

    https://csn.cancer.org/node/312552

    It is good you are thinking about things so instead of focusing on the surgery (which really is fairly routine now) you can focus on preparing and organising things so by the time they wheel you in you won't be too worried because you'll know you have everything ready for when you come out.

    Ask specific questions if you want to know something about the surgery itself or anything else.

    --and get it over with. I could tell you it was not going to hurt, but I would be laughed off this board.

    Iceman is right.....it does

    Iceman is right.....it does hurt. It's not forever as you will heal after a period of time. I'm hurting but know it's not forever. Good luck.
