I have been reading more postings and really am questioning myself if this upcoming shunt surgery is what we should do for my husband. The purpose of the surgery is for him to get better and not have the confusion, etc. that many have mentioned after their shunt surgery, he has it now. It is horrible, so I know what you all are talking about. I really am having second thoughts about canceling. After the severe fall he had in June 2009 the Mri and CT Scans show moderate Encephalomalacia within the left frontal lobe. I was wondering if those that have the shunt were having these same difficulties prior to the surgery. I appreciate any replies. Lisa Barnes Hospital is GREAT have family all in St.Louis, they all use Barnes for their care, eventually we may be moving back there.
