14 Days Post OP - a few things to say

[Guest guest]

Hello all,

At this point, I think writing a book would be quite easy. Actually a

very cathartic experience.

I've been reading posts for a few hours and can now relate more than

ever.

This, I realize is not the place to tell the whole " experience " story

but for me it was amazing - good and bad. If anyone wants to hear

the whole story - email me and I will give it to you.

My goal prior to surgery was to prepare myself for as much as

possible. I tried to be an optimist and read as many success stories

as possible. I am successfully decompressed and the surgeon was

quite impressed with the pressure my brain was experiencing and that

the herniation was more than shown on the MRI - common I'm sure. He

is very optimistic and even a little excited to see how recovery

proves the lessoning of some of my chiari symptoms. Wish I could say

more - having computer problems. I'll try this again. '
