Hey, Gareth! Good to hear from you. Yeah, I was pretty relaxed during the holidays -- out in Michigan. I definitely think stress can cause problems. For instance, today I worked for about 18 hrs straight, came home, went poopy, and it was a bloody mess -- it looked like freddy krueger was unleashed on my butt (even though I ate like a saint yesterday). Not too much pain though, which I'm thankful for. Yes, positive thinking is important if I have a procedure done, I'm just not gonna get my hopes up too much (they've been dashed too often with this stupid thing -- that's the most tiring part of it all).
Lecia, yeah, I definitely haven't exhausted my options. I'm going in for botox on Thursday. Worth a shot (no pun intended). Sorry to hear you need surgery -- you'll be in my thoughts. Glad to hear you're enjoying a little pre-op freedom though.
Fishy, thanks, I know Dr. Aronoff and I'm pretty certain it's exactly the same procedure too. I believe they're affiliated.
Juney, thanks for the words. Hope you heal soon...and hope everyone else is feeling better too.
