right_on, thanks for your words.
I attended the seminar last night, and while none of the info was new to me, it was a step that needed to be taken - technically and emotionally. It was nice to see the surgeons that could possibly be performing the operation on me. The info I found most interesting and useful was the timeline of it all.
I recently talked to my regular, family doctor and he said he commends me for considering it and says I would be a perfect candidate, so getting a referral from him shouldn't be a big deal.
Now it's a matter of doing all the things before making an appointment with the surgeon.
I'm actually kind of excited about getting the surgery, now. I'm defintely still having doubts and fears, but nowhere near as much as before.
