The surgery countdown is on!

The countdown has reached the single-digit stage.  I have 9 days to go!

You'll start to get nervous soon....  

John.

I'm excited but also starting to feel nervous.  Damn you, John.

good luck man..

you will get nervous..the day before will be the worst..u'll question urself...like is it really worth it, maybe you should just be happy with what god gave you..

i went through that..i can also tell you that i am much happier now that i did it and i wouldn't have it any other way...

u'll look back after surgery and thank yourself that you didn't let the nervousness and questions stop you..trust me..

i was nervous but there is no reason to be. people on these boards make it out to be sooo bad. i was in the op room at like 9 or 10 and out by 1. i had hardly any pain at all. they gave me laughing gas (which was quite nice) and then before i knew it i was in the recovery room ready to leave. it's not bad AT ALL!

[serg]

Good luck mate! See you on the other side!

[nukem2k5]

Yep, two days.

Tuesday at 7:30am I'll be heading over there.

Good luck. Time has certainly flown past. I remember reading your posts about setting up a consultation, and now here you are.

[nukem2k5]

It definitely has.  It feels like I was just telling myself "only 16 more days" and now I'm already down to 2.

I just hope my whole summer doesn't go by this fast.

I just hope my whole summer doesn't go by this fast.

It probably will go by fast, you'll be so busy swimming and relaxing at the beach without your shirt on that it will fly right by.

ahah yup, get a tan and everything you bastard  .

[oleoze]

1 day to go? Its getting closer?  

[nukem2k5]

Well I just hope I don't have a bunch of swelling and that I'll be able to take off my shirt if I go to the beach with my girlfriend and her family again this summer.

Luckily Dr. Metzner does the lipo and gland removal through a high-in-the-armpit incision (I'm not sure exactly how high, but I believe it's somewhere in my armpit hair) so hiding the scars should hopefully be an easy task.

I'm praying that everything goes well and my recovery is quick and simple.  

It's in 21 hours...

9 hours...
