Just got back from the post-op visit. The doc says it's healing nicely. He also said that because the surgery is for future use and my muscles are young and healthy, the more trauma and resulting pain to my otherwise healthy stomach muscle tissue (also explains all the muscle spasms I had early on).

Linda - I'm glad Carol is feeling better. My treatments also begin on 2/8! We can compare notes. Feel free to email me any time ([email protected]).
