I'm of two minds on this. On the one hand, yeah, I absolutely want this over. I want to move on. On the other hand, I don't know if I feel well enough for surgery. Strong enough. It's one of the things I plan to discuss with the docs on Tuesday.
Well, from your posts I think I discern enough of you to know that you ask the right questions and require information from your medical providers. So I hope your medical providers are honest with you about the risks, what to expect etc. and I hope they are competent enough to hear your concerns and address them appropriately.
And then, once you know the risks, you will certainly make the decision that is right for you re the quality of your life that you are or are not willing to risk and what you are willing to risk in order to attain quality of life. I do hear you clearly I think, especially not having anybody to take over for you and take care of you at home. That really does suck.
Nevertheless, if I had any power in your situation, I would exercise it to have this done, have you fixed, and have it over with. Oh how much I wish there were such things as crystal balls so that we could know.
(What I wish for you I even wish for Dys and all the rest of us who are suffering from debilitating or troubling or scary conditions and situations. Sometimes it does seem unfair.)
