Hi dear Loula ~ I'm sorry you haven't gotten any responses yet. I just saw this myself today.

I think if it was me, I'd do as much research on this as I could possibly do as to the benefits and risks of such a surgery. There must be some information out there on this. In fact, look at the very top of this page where it says PubMed, and you could probably find some info there if you know what to look under. It has a search, so just knowing how to word what you're looking for is the problem. LOL.

I think once I found out what I needed to know re: the benefits & risks, then I'd talk to at least 3 doctors and get their feelings on the matter. This isn't something you need done right this minute ~ you have time. I'd definitely get a few opinions and would go with the majoritys' opinion.

You certainly have had your share of troubles and pain! I hope and pray that this is the end of it, and that you won't be bothered any more. I wish I knew more about your condition, but sadly i don't and don't really know how to advise you. Just know that you will be in my prayers. God bless you and please take care of yourself!! hugs, Lee
