A member asked:
What to do if i have to get both, due to health issues, and i really don't want to suffer two recoveries. is it possible these surgeries can be done together?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
For what?: What type of surgery do you need? Can they both be done by the same surgeon? Would one interfere with the other? You really have to pose your question to your Surgeon. He/she will know what's best for you.
