Andy, thanks for the run down! I am awaiting a date, so I am getting nervous about the process. I've never been in the hopital either, so to hear how you got through makes me a little more aware.

Yes, it was great. I was put at ease from the moment I met my pre-op nurse. I just tell everyone to be open and honest with every staff member you meet and tell them exactly how you feel. You'll do great!
