Is surgery controversial?

After my surgery my GP confessed that I had ‘taught him something new’ because he had never heard of Eagle’s. I had to really push him to pay attention and write a referral to the surgeon I selected. A local ENT got mad at me when I told her what I needed help with, and my pulmonologist had to look it up on the internet. Yet another ENT said their was no easy fix for it. My surgeon also said it was controversial, and not likely the cause of my vertigo, but he did concur that it might help other symptoms. I had bilateral intraoral surgery last month and I am doing much better. Thanks to this group, I had the tools to persevere until I got help. I think the doctors really don’t know much about it and few are honest enough to admit it.
