John,

Did you stay long post-op in Virginia or did you come back pretty fast? How often did you get checkups in Virginia before coming back to where you live?

How long did you have to wait to get the surgery? What is the waiting time with Dr. Wong?

Did you get general or local anesthesia et if you got local how was your experience with getting the numbing shot? Any pain or sensations? Maybe they put you out while they did the numbing and woke you up after?

Thank you and take care.
I stayed about 3 or 4 days after surgery. I will be making an appointment with a local doctor for my 2 -  week check up. 

I did not have to wait long. Took about 5 weeks to have the surgery. Could have been earlier but wanted to stay in town for my mother's birthday, plus weeks prior to that he went to Florida for some convention.

I was awake during the whole thing, but Dr. Wong said that patients vary. Some are in twilight some are awake some are out completely.

I was actually talking about football during the surgery. So... smiley: roll

There was 0 pain. Nada. Nothing.

Though I was expecting a ton of pain.  But I won't complain.
