SAME, my fellow surgery buddy. Seeing those people who have had surgery around the same time as I did getting deband dates but not me is leaving me feeling a little, as the kids say, "jelly." I have an appointment with my ortho tomorrow and I am HOPING/PRAYING/WISHING that I get a deband date at that time. I doubt it because I predict that they are coming off in September/October but I just have to keep believing that tomorrow will be the day I get the news.
