I am considering having a right temporal lobectomy and would like to know the personal side of recovery. I'm quite aware of the medical issues, but how can it affect you emotionally, even just the small issues like having some hair shaved off etc. Any info from your point of view would be helpful. Thanks, Amanda

Hi

My name is TomIIWatkins. I had my Brain Surgey on my left side where it left 33% of brain damage. I have headaches from it. But there is nothing they can do about it. Because there could have pressure for the surgey but there no results from that. My lifestyle has a lot to do with it. I work at Publix, I play sports, help at Church. I do have a GrandMol Seizure disorder from it also. But my seizures are not to serious to worry about it.

P.S. Good Luck on your Brain Surgey.

Also Email at TomII20@yahoo.com if you want to talk you.
