    Default getting ready to have surgery

    I am waiting for insurance approval for surgery. Kind of nervous. Insurance has approved surgery I am now waiting for the surgeon to approve. Has anyone here used Blue Valley Surgical Hospital in Kansas?

    I was a little nervous, too. But it is all going so much better than I thought it would. The discomfort is very manageable, I haven't even filled my prescription for pain meds. I have no interest in food, none. That is just so weird for me, I had such a big appetite, but that's gone. I have been walking around the house and this morning I cleaned up the patio area. The walking helps with the gas from surgery and I seem to have so much energy. Good luck with your journey!
