HI- I am new to this forum. I have been reading it and I think it is great that there is such a supportive and informative forum here. Well, here is my story....I am a female who has had just had the procedure done 1 week ago. On day 11, I am due to have the staples removed. Will this be very painful? I am stressing out already. TIA for any responses. Jan

Hi Jan

 

congratulations on taking your big step, i think you will be very happy in a few months. As for the staples, I don't think you will have a big problem, listen to your drs post-op care instructions and do a search on staple removal on this site and you will get lots of great information. Some posters indicated to soak in a warm bath the day of staple removal and others say have a beer to help relax you. either way I am sure you will gets lots of good advice shortly from the members and good luck!!!! hopefully you will let us see some photos of your progress,

Thanks for your welcome. I don't have any pictures of my own yet, although the Dr. does (Dr. Feller- he was great). Maybe I'll have my 10 yr old take a pic and I'll attach it. My son is very intrigued by the whole process. I was not sure what I was going to tell him at first, but I just explained the situation to him and he was fine....
