@chippydoo Funny thing....a buddy of mine who has had various surgeries over the past 15 years (hiatal hernia, knee replacement, carpel tunnel) said we're all just used cars. The parts are gonna wear out...so you gotta replace 'em (if you can).

That's my goal - six weeks to something closer to normal. Gonna do my best to do al the right things post surgery. Giving me hope there-thank you!

@fritzo You've got this. Best wishes on your journey. Starting out this is very overwhelming and I know I questioned everything, at least in my mind. The benefit of other peeps is invaluable. Some very good firsthand information and shared experiences of those that have actually wrestled with and had the procedures. I would suggest being weary of the occasional extremist "must does". Generally, if I haven't had a procedure I won't comment or will ask what it was like and how it went.
