CanyonBaby 1,852 Posted April 29, 2015 You seriously need to talk with your doctor and surgeon about this, and do it NOW. You don't want a whole lot of complications that put you in dire straits. All of this NEEDS to be figured out BEFORE you go into surgery, And if your doctors don't know what to do, GET NEW ONES! All the best to you... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
