Hi UKmommy,
I am new to the site but lurked for a few weeks. I have been researching the surgery for awhile and found this site to be very helpful. I will be attending a free seminar this Thursday and getting the ball rolling. I have done some of the leg work already by finding out if my insurance will cover the surgery and if my Primary doctor will give me a referral. So far so good.
I hope your journey the 2nd time around is more successful and you find a facility that you are comfortable with. That makes all the difference when you are making a life changing decision.
