Mona,

I hope your decision process is going well.  It can really be an emotional journey of flip flopping and over thinking, etc.  It took me over two months to make my decision when I decided to do something once my AN started growing this past year.  What worked for me was finding a good doctor that I trusted, and then it just all came together.  I haven't had GK yet, but I am sure I am going in the right direction "for me".  Touring the GK center was very helpful.  Best wishes on your journey, and I think you will know when you get to that "gut" decision.  It just sort of appears out of no where, or at least it did for me.
