Dear Kath, make sure to make a list of things that you want to ask
your srgeon before he injects you with a drug that may make you forget what
you were going to ask. Ask him/Hr, how many of these procedures that they
have done, and what have the sucess rates have been on a percentage of people
out of 100 for instance. Ask them how long that they have been doing this
type of surgury, and if they have come across ant type of complications
during this type of surgury. Ask them what medical school that they went to
to learn how to deal with adhesions, and how many they have done and the
sucess rate. What kind of outome do they expect and whether or not you wil be
on painkillers, and for how long. Just make sure that you get to know just
who is operating on you and their credentials, because you surely do not want
an intern operating on you. How many surgeons will be in the operating room
and who is the lead surgeon, and how long has he/ she has been in practice.
You need to get to know your surgeon and their credentials before letting
anyone cut on you. Just tell them that you are asking these questions because
you want a good outcome and that you are nervous just meeting surgeons and
letting them cut on you without knowing anything about them. If thy are good
surgeons, they will understand why you are asking uch questions, and will
understand your fears. God Be with You..Dave
