Finally Have a Surgery Date

After calling the office manager, the hospital Ombudsman, and sending an E-mail to my surgeon, I finally received my surgery date. On 1/23 I begin the journey of getting back what Prostate surgery took away. I have to say between the combination of excitement and nervousness I've had significant trouble falling asleep at night. Surgery day can't come soon enough for me.

Congrats, I'm 6 weeks out from surgery, but waiting for activation. Going through recovery can be frustrating, but it teaches patience. I had a hard time with the patience part of it.

Congratulations and best of luck. I hope your surgery goes as smooth as mine did. I am now 5 weeks out. Get activated the end of next week.
Except for the first couple of days I had very little pain and only took a total of probably about 6 pain pills. Had some of the most lovely purple balls and penis but that all cleared up by the end of the second week.
We will be right here to welcome you into the brother hood of bionics

Glad to hear from the both of you that your surgeries went well. After waiting 4 years to see where I landed post prostatectomy, I hope a 6 week wiait for activation is a piece of cake. That said waiting another week for surgery seems difficult!
