And Last of All...

On the following page I have provided links to even more helpful information. Please check it all out as it's all relevant and may fill gaps even I may have missed. Also, getting a different perspective from others can help to provide a better understanding or just to reinforce knowledge you may already have, so spending this little extra research time will certainly be well worth it.

I just want to say it one last time... if you are still determined to go ahead with ETS surgery, I need to remind you that it should be the absolute, very last resort after everything else has failed. And even then, the potential benefits need to be weighted carefully against the long list of side-effects.

My advice is Don't Do It. The risk is just too great. You may be thinking your life can't get any worse, but believe me it most certainly can, and does. But only you can make the final decision as to whether ETS surgery is for you. Hopefully you now have all the information you need to at least make an informed decision. From here on, we can only hope and pray that the decision you make is the right one. Good luck!
