Surgery date set

My surgery date is now set for January 30 for both Chiari and arachnoid cyst. Dr. Kim in Houston, TX will be my surgeon. My date could potentially be earlier so I'll update if necessary. Now I've got to make quite a list and check it twice...Thanks for all of your support.

I am soo happy for you... I hope that everything goes smooth and for a fast recovery ... please let me know how you are doing

Emily,

Thanks so much..right now I'm in the mode of making lists of everything to take care of prior to surgery. I'm also stressing because I'm getting married April 13. My Dr. says I'll be fine for the Wedding day..I will be 10 weeks post op. What do you think? And..any pointers on things I will need to take to the hospital with me?

The surgery date may come faster than you think it well, best of luck to you!

Although you didn’t ask me, I’ll chime in and say that you should be perfectly fine for your wedding. Just get lots of helpers, as everyone should anyway, and you’ll do fine!

What is the special creme everyone recommends for post op incision? I just found out my surgery in Jan 15th! I feel very unprepared and such little time to figure out what I need. THANKS!!

Mmrobinson,
I’m so glad you are getting the care you need.
All the best to you in recovery and your wedding!
