The short version is, I've already had brain surgery 17 times. The surgery they're talking about now would be on my spinal cord. On the one hand, I've already had a total of 18 surgeries (one hysterectomy), so what's one more, right? On the other hand, if they screw it up there's a distinct possibility I could end up paralyzed or lose other functioning. If the neurosurgeon looks at the new scans (still haven't had that scheduled) and thinks I should have surgery, I'll probably go for it, but it's still scary to think about.
I really appreciate that. It means a lot to me that ppl I've never met IRL (probably never will, at that) care enough to say things like "wish I could do more"

Hopefully, what ever the official diagnosis, you will be pain/injury free when the doctors have worked their magic!
