Hi Erika,
Thank you for your message and sorry for not replying before.
Yes, I have already consulted a second opinion and I am also planning to see a third one.
I will be traveling to the United States just for LITT presurgical testing by the end of May. LITT surgery is not yet performed in Brazil. It would be very nice to talk to people who had this experience in the past. This would help me much to prepare myself for the appointments at this presurgical testing and the decision-making process.
Kind regards

@santosha, I'd also like introduce you to @patrassi, who has traveled from Brazil to the U.S. (Mayo Clinic) for epilepsy care for her son. I'm not sure if she has any experience with LITT (laser interstitial thermal), but I'm sure she has tips about traveling to the US for medical care and about Mayo Clinic if you're interested in seeking an opinion at Mayo.

Have you traveled to the U.S. in the past for medical care?
