That sounds accurate. My grandfather had knee surgery a couple or three years ago, I think just a half replacement. Today, three years later, he's undergone another couple surgery's to try to fix whatever's wrong, and he basically can not walk at all, due to the massive pain. The surgery didn't help anything at all; it made the problem worse, and has him basically off his feet, forever.

whenever it happens I get drops to put in my eye about 4 times a day but the vision in that eye clouds up.

Those odds aren't that great. It sounds like a person would be just as well not having the surgery at all and living with the existing condition. [img]/threads/images/Graemlins/Cold.gif[/img]

Yeah, if only surgeons had to go through FDA trials...

Re: OT: Narf has no more wisdom...Teeth. Owie Owie
I've only had 1 wisdom tooth removed. The only reason I got it yanked was due to a very nasty infection that had me in severe pain every day for about a year and a half. I've also had another tooth removed. It's not half bad to be honest. All they gave me was laughing gas and the numbing stuff. Never gave me any pain killers either :-( Though, with the 2nd tooth it really wasn't that bad, after you get the first one and a wisdom at that I think your pain tolerance goes up a few notches. Still have my other 3 coming in, here's to hoping I don't need them out.
