Subject: Re: NEED CONTACTS Hi April, My name is Marie and I haven't had my surgery yet, but 6/2 is my date. You may have better luck if you e-mail some of the post-ops privately. Some may not read the posting here much anymore. I had to send out 50-60 request before I got my 10 contacts. I think you will find many helpful people here but I'm sure they are getting a lot of request daily and may have a hard time answering all. Wish I could help!! Just send to lots of people on the list that Dr. R. has the e-mail addresses in the Patient Info book. That's what I did!! Good Luck, Marie > Hi Marie, My name is and I am going through the steps to get surgery myself. I used email to contact all my post ops. I just read the posts and picked people who sounded nice and like they didn't mind talking about thier surgery. Then I emailed them personally and asked a few questions. I sent out 12 and recieved answers for all within a week. Give it a try. They are a wonderful group of people on this site. I have my PI in and am waiting for approval. Have most of my packet done except pap smear, EKG and blood work. Dropped off my request for letter to my PCP yesterday. I thought he would be a hard one to convince. He is very conservative about diet medications etc. But he surprised me by totally agreeing that I was a good candidate for this surgery and said he would fully cooperate. Wish you luck in your quest. from Michigan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
