Reply to "Dr. Shen - still cautious"

tdr26: Yes, I had problems after the first procedure. He put two endoclips in to keep the sinus open, but they fell out; therefore, I was back to square one. However, last time he put in 9 clips to ensure the sinus is able to drain.

As far as "knowing when the clips fall out," I think they are actually very, very small and I'm not sure what they are made of. But never noticed anything unusual!

Dr. Shen said he is "90% sure" and "guarantees" he can keep me pouch happy! He certainly helps you to be optimistic -- because he is!

I visited my surgeon today for a follow-up and he, too, is optimistic. I am sort of his guinea-pig because an associate doctor has a patient with similar issues. I am hoping to tell him sooner or later that everything worked out great.
