Hi Rick,
Don't worry most of us have chosen to go with the general anesthesia,
where they knock you out!! Regional anesthesia is an option if you so
choose, but it is totally up to the patient!So tell your wife not to
worry about that!
Anything else I can do to help either of you?? Please feel free to email
me personally anytime ! I'm so excited you and your wife will be making
the trip to Germany soon, when is her surgery? I completely understand
how nervous and scared she is... I was the first to go see Dr.
Kruschinski, I had no one to talk to about their experience, I did this
all on advise I got off the internet... Talk about being scared out of
my mind !! So I can relate, and am always here to help...
