so instead, you're saying that that 2% risk is unacceptable?I have never desputed anybody elses experiences nor would I.
do you drive?

In the engineering job I do 2% is a massive risk and this may be where my personnal worry comes from I deal daily in numbers where 0.001 is considered unacceptable and intolerable. But without wanting to be contradictory we all know the 98% is getting you off the table. Long term the sucess is considerably less. My surgeon said only the living comment and sometimes its a bit like that scene in Jaws where scars are being comparred.so instead, you're saying that that 2% risk is unacceptable?

The surgeons comments were (and I'll will be honest) utterly against joining any online forum in relation to the operation and he did reiterate the point several times. He is involved in achademic studies about just how psychologically harming they are to certain patient groups (maybe me). But hey ho I didnt take his advice. He did however say he would facilitate contact with any cardiothorasic surgeons globally I would wish to speak to for futher advice which was very considerate. Yes evidently the long term outcome (not sucess) is zero you are correct.In reality, the looooooooong term success is zero........so what!
and did your surgeon really make a stupid comment like "only the living comment"......and he went to medical school to learn that.
I kinda remember a Jaws scene where the captain shows off his scars and I don't agree with your suggestion. Most of the "veterans" on this site post their responses to educate the newcomers.....not to brag. It is like another organization I belong to that that suggests....."take what you need and leave the rest".

Ok ... so if you are an engineerIn the engineering job I do 2% is a massive risk
unless he'd met us and found that we don't wind up people anxiety and stresses about "the horrors" but try to support people.The surgeons comments were (and I'll will be honest) utterly against joining any online forum in relation to the operation and he did reiterate the point several times.
