Reply to "Need Surgery"

Hi Ross,

I also live in CT, am same age as you (56) and actually grew up and lived in Fairfield and now live in New Haven County the last 20 years. I have heard very good things about Dr. Reddy. I actually had my thyroid cancer surgery at Yale in 2015 and my care there was excellent. My colectomy was done in 1992 in NYC. I had UC from 1972 - 1992 (ages 9-29) and was facing the same prognosis as you- 20 years with UC plus dysplasia = significantly increased cancer risk. Do you really want to wait until you get cancer to have surgery? I think you will be in good hands with Dr. Reddy. Be careful about shopping for multiple opinions, they will likely be the same, unless you haven’t tried biologics. 

The high BP is a concern - hope you can get that down. Dr. Reddy will want it down. I have same issue now but didn’t at age 29. Good luck
