Thanks, Isaiah_40_31! Probably the main problem on MY end of surgery is that I have an exaggerated inflammatory response post-op. And the problem on the part of my surgeons is that they believe their skill set is better able to handle my situation than former surgeons and so they get too confident. That delays treatment for post-op complications. That leads to more hospitalizations and home healthcare. RSD/CRPS that gets angry. Flare-ups from PT/rehab. Those sorts of things. The doctors really should try to put together the puzzle of my medical history rather than fracture it more. I have a good handle on medical knowledge and presenting them with my med history in a way to squeeze in as much as possible during short visits. When I went to three different doctors for the Eagle syndrome, they said I definitely had it but unless I felt like I couldn’t make it through the day to forget surgery because the success rate was 50%. (I know those statistics are incorrect, but considering my body’s response to other surgeries, I decided not to pursue it.) You guys are awesome at support here! Thank you!
