When I was diagnosed 10 years ago The vascular doctor that was highly recommended told He it is a very expensive surgery and it would be a 50 50 chance it would work. I talked to a friend that was a nurse in our hospital with vascular for many years. I was referred to the Chief Of staff that was in vascular for over 30 years. He told me if you were my wife I would say don’t touch it leave it alone. I belong to another Facebook group for MALS and it seems surgeries haven’t been working and also found out that people have 3-4 surgeries. There are some people that are glad they had surgery. I would highly recommend to join that Facebook group that is where I learned the most. Iwasn’t Diagnosed until I was 50 maybe if I would of been diagnosed at an earlier age I would of tried surgery. I would caution you to really educate yourself and choose a surgeon wisely or things could become worse. I hope you find the answers you need. God bless you and your family!
