Welcome! Congrats on your surgery date. I just finished all my appointments, so I’m playing the insurance waiting game for the bypass approval.

Hi, Amy! Welcome! Stay positive and you'll do great! Abdominal Binders are a must have. The hospital may provide one.

Welcome Amy & congratulations on your upcoming surgery. As missy said, a positive attitude will take you very far during this process. Have you ever done meditation? How about positive affirmations? I have found both of these to be soooooo helpful the last year and a half. Wishing you the best of luck on your journey.
