    Just try to relax! You probably wont sleep tonight because of nerves....this is normal. Find some really crappy or funny movies and hunker down til surgery. Best of luck. Hope you have a speedy recovery:-)

    Nah, get nervous! Get excited! Get scared! Get happy! You paid good money! Get your monies worth! too bad it won't last more than 30 minutes and you'll sleep through it!

    My message has an alternate motive :P

    Take Gas X Strips and use two of them (melt on your tongue one at a time) as soon as you are in your room. If you start feeling pain in your shoulders or back, take some more. They were amazing.
