Guest guest Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 You can think of it 2 different ways, you mentioned the value. At 21% function, I feel its value is declining. It is 79% useless at this point. As far as wanting the surgery, I would like to keep the GB if there was absolutely no chance of it causing a bigger problem in the future. For me peace of mind is important, without always having a concern about every pain I may have in my abdomen being a potential GB attack that could require emergency surgery. 2. Do I want surgery? I'm NOT crazy. Of course NOT! Am I going to try alternatives? Of course I am. I finally got answers to questions I've been asking the group all along, thanks to the surgeon. I felt very alone on this. I had 2 responses to any question I posted. I needed answers and I have them now. Now, I get aw hole lot of criticism after posting what the surgeon told me. AMAZING! I have to do what is BEST for me. Every ones situation is different. If I chose to or chose NOT to, know that I have PRAYED on, researched it, and done all I could to make this choice. I hope that last post helped someone in the group. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
