Hello @jact64
My Name is Connie00
I am one off the community Champion’s here at Scope. it’s really nice to meet you.
A very warm welcome to the Community.
Thank you for reaching out to us, it's completely Understandable why you are so scared, who wouldn't be in your shoes. However what you have to weigh up is the high intensity of pain you are in now with little or no relief. or take the risk and I won't lie there are risks.
But you take or we take risks every day in our everyday lives. we take risks when we cross a busy road or get into our cars nobody knows for sure what's going to happen
you know what they say nothing ventured nothing gained. I do believe the success rate is much better now, talk it over with your surgeon, these procedures are very expensive and if not very good results would not be offered.
We are always here to lend support, help, and advise where we can,
If we can be of any assistance to you please don’t hesitate to contact us
