Hello and Welcome to NeuroTalk, Beckym!

I don't have any experience with what you are dealing with so can't help you unfortunately but I wanted to wish you the best of luck with your upcoming procedure and really hope it helps you!!

I'm sure someone will be along soon hopefully to give you some help and advice!

Take care and I hope to see you around the forum more soon! Please let us know how your operation goes when you can!

Alison.
