Looking forward to joining the Bionic Brotherhood soon. Implant surgery by Dr Bryan Kansas is scheduled on Dec 10, 2024.

In a few hours from now, my wife and I will be taking a 3.5 hours drive to Austin, Texas. Spending a night at a nearby hotel, before heading to the medical center the next morning.

Dr Kansas in my insurance network and from what others in FT has suggested, I should be in good hands. I will provide more information regarding (Marketplace) insurance later.

Frozen peas in the freezer, prescriptions picked up. I even invested in a new powered recliner sofa.
Thanks to all of you, I believe I am quite mentally prepared for the challenges ahead, after reading all the info I can read from FT.

Dr Kansas was my guy three weeks ago . I think you’re in good hands and hope everything goes smoothly. I did consider sneaking out of bed as I lay there waiting in the hospital gown but I decided I’d come through enough with the ED journey and wanted to see it through.

The staff at the surgery center were great also. Good luck.

Good luck with your procedure.

Good luck brother, remember ice and it will be different but good, and everyd day will be better than the last for a year.
Enjoy the heal

Good Luck Bluepenquin, you’ve done a lot of research here on FrankTalk, which has prepared you for this journey.
Hey, another Texan is joining the brotherhood.
Blue, I’m not from Texas but I got here as soon as I could.
I have the same implant as you will have.

We’ll be standing by to help answer any questions.

Good luck! Hope your recovery goes great and welcome to the Brotherhood

Hope all goes well and your healing is painless. Glad you found FT and know what to expect.

I used frozen popcorn when i had my surgeries .. it holds the cold good ..molds around everything well ... and has a nice weight to it so it stays in place without putting too much pressure on things

Glad to have you with us.

Good luck.

good luck brother

the frozen pop corn kernels seems like an excellent idea. I just used frozen corn (still sealed from the grocery). Only prob is that if you try to re-freeze you get larger chunks which defeats the purpose - hence the kernels.
