However compared to open surgery and damage to surrounding tissues especially with the use of robics, it has to prefereble to open surgery IF good results can be achieved. If however i5 becomes appa...

Re: IPPS and Erdogru
Hi Karyn, My surgery was unilateral so a very long time for just one side. I don,t think I ever had an explanation of why it took so long, other than it was a difficult surgery with a vety impacted neve at the ligament grip. On top of this the source of bleeding had to be found and dealt with. Dr Ti...

Whilst Ido have some hip issues on my effected side these have developed with the pn. Whether or not they were there before Ido not know, its a bit chicken and egg. Idon,t think Ihad ...

I am now nearly six months post op and have made roughly 25 3o%improvement, most of this in the last two months. I am naturally pleased with this and hope given time Iwill continue to m...
