Fowki,
So if they approve you, you're going through with it. Who is the doctor and where are you having it done? Also, what does "BTT" mean? |

Yes, I am going to do it. The Doc is Kenneth Ott here in San Diego. Mine will be slightly different as I will be done under general anesthesia due to my Parkinson's.

Fowki,
I hope you'll post about your experience. I've only found a couple of posts through searches where people have described their experience with this procedure. I also hope you'll get a favorable outcome and some relief from the pain. |

I'm anxious to hear how it goes for you, too....which I hope is great. This seems to be the most "attractive" procedure to me out of all of them.
