Damn good points, Pooter.

Couldn't have said it better myself.  I'm in TOTAL agreement with your post.

Some very good advice.

Retrosig 5/31/07 Drs. Battista & Kazan (Hinsdale, Illinois)
Left AN 3.0 cm (1.5 cm @ diagnosis 6 wks prior) SSD. BAHA implant 3/4/08 (Dr. Battista) Divino 6/4/08  BP100 4/2010 BAHA 5 8/2015

I don't actually "make" trouble..just kind of attract it, fine tune it, and apply it in new and exciting ways

Glad you said it Pooter. During my visits with doctors my husband specifically asked their opinion of SBI, and we were surprised at some of the data that one doctor shared with us. When I was in my decision-making stage, I found that I was leary simply because Shahinian is not a neurologist, but is a plastic surgeon.
I would suggest that researching a little deeper in his particular case might be a really good idea.
