Awesome, simply awesome news and good for you! My three level with Clavel is 8.5 months, and doing great. Won't lie though. Post op is tough work for sure, but you are putting yourself in preeminent and first class care here.
You will have an endless constellation of adjustments postop and the usual 'I made the worst decision of my life freakout'. Don't worry. Plan on it. Then be patient for it gets better!
Food: La Flauta, right around AKO on same block. Eat there often. La Caixa is where you can get more euros and they're everywhere so carry light on cash.
Call me if you need to any time(check PMs) and tell Dr Clavel and Yolanda, Andrew Radakovitz said 'Hi'.
