Hi Jean,

Welcome to OFF, a place of support, information and where good friendships are always in the making!  As everyone else said, we are here for you as you seek out your "doctor prince" and there have been many of us who hung out while undergoing research, prior to surgery, so jump on and in no time you will feel as though you've always been a part of this place, oh and as for long-winded, I for one, can be, it's sort of like having a person-to-person chat. . .

Regards, Laureen


My Mantra is that I do not determine my success by the number hanging in my closet, nor will I let the scale determine that success either. . .  It is through trial and error I will continue to grow and succeed. . .  Laureen

Just chiming in my welcome, and wishing you the very best success in finding what you need.. the  right surgery and the right doctor-prince.

I have friends who live in East TX, and I know how the small town life there can be sooo judgemental...it's nice to be in a place that just accepts you, like the Over Fifty Forum.
Blessings and hugs, hoping for the best,  Donna H

Hi Jean,
Welcome! You are not a failure! Get that thought out of your head. You just need another type of tool to help you with your battle. Surgery has changed quite a bit since the 80's and hopefully you'll find the right type to suit you! I don't know any doctors that do revision - I'm from Canada and not familiar with different surgeons in the states.

All I can recommend is that you take the time to research the type of procedure you'd like to have done and then talk to a surgeon. You'll do fine! Nice to have you on this board.

Maggie
