Oh cool! I am with a group at Lucile Packard because I started this process when I was 16 and Dr. Morton is the surgeon they use, so all of us kids in the group have had him. There must be 30 or so of us, and we're all fine!

I'm 3 weeks out. I know the first week or so after surgery I had regretted it very much, but once you get past that first week everything is so much better! Also, BE SURE! to drink your water! I thought I would be okay, and didn't drink much. I wound up having to be re-admitted for another 3 days because of dehydration, so drink up! Are you on a pre-op liquid diet?
