You have found the right place. Been through some surgery myself and will be having more in the future. Pretty much been holed up since January here(misread your date, I only have been since 2003)
One question I would have for you is whether the same doctor did both surgery's? If so, its time for a second opinion I would think. Two surgies in a year and now suggestion of another already which seems to be of a shock to you would lead me to see another specialist to make sure I am getting the correct treatment and have had the proper procedures done to date.
Good luck and you will find alot of help on this board to pick you up on your down days. Yesterday was a horrible day for me and it was great to be able to sign on and get some support. We all feel your pain and wish you the best.
