I am really having a hard time with this and I love her so very much. I am trying to be strong. She may have to stay over tonight and go straight into surgery. I just don't get it - she is so lively and seems so fine, so I just don't get it. |
hypoglycemia and liver shunt go hand and hand BUT i would take her to dr tobias at university of tennessee for any surgery as just met another liver shunt survivor this week for lunch and she flew from california to tennessee to have it done and it was 1200 and they were excellent and dr tobias is the best surgeon for this- are they near you?
