such good news. 12 days well 11 now right. remember you will need to give yourself/body healing time .so the pain probly wont magicily dissapear right away. and be awear of infections keep area "clean" sorta speak before and after. I am sure doc has a game plan for you to follow...
so all i can say is glad to hear how things went and more happy you finaly have a place and time with a fine doctor. and family around that matters alot too. keep us updated, you will be in my prayers. we are all in your corner rooting for you
Peace
