Default Your post is much appreciated
Hi fmiyakaw,
I will be having an appointment with Dr F September 24. My symptoms have worsened and I am so much looking forward to the day of my surgery. Your post-op updates are much appreciated. What were your pre-op symptoms? Did you go into the surgery having nerve damage? Thank again for your generosity.
I wish you a smooth and "fast" recovery. God bless you!

For those of you heading towards surgery: keep taking laxatives/stool softeners when you leave hospital. My entire perineal area is numb, and nurses said this might be true for months. So your bowel and bladder will need all the help they can get! Severe constipation has truly been the worst part of my recovery so far.
