Welcome Dee,
I agree with all the posts and I'll add my 2 cents also. It's a good idea to get a second or even third opinion before jumping in. Make sure you are confident in your doctor and he has a lot of experience. This forum has been so helpful with every aspect of ADR surgery before and after. Thank goodness for supportive hubbies.
Phylly
