The surgeon's office called today, and it looks like I will be going under the knife on Nov. 14th. Can't wait for all this to be over. Take care everyone.

Now you have a few weeks to prepare yourself, and start planning for your recovery at home. It will all be over before you know it. Most everyone feels a strange sense of calmness immediately before the surgery, and I'm sure you will as well. Read as many of the pre-op forums as you can and absorb as much as possible. It's amzing how much easier everything is in the hospital when you know what to expect, and you can also impress your nursing staff! You'll do just fine, and you should be up and around and ready to enjoy an especially Blessed Thanksgiving.

That is good news that you do not have to wait long for surgery. I too had a rapid decline over about 6 weeks and was only too glad to have the date locked in. Take it very easy over the next 2 weeks. I went from no breathlessness to quite severe over a 2 week period.

All the very best. You will be surprised how routine things are.

Cheers
