              Thanks for that additional info. And for your kind message. Wow, everyone is so helpful and supportive on here, it really means a lot. 

              I understand you had a complete inguinal dissection. (I believe my surgeon said mine would be "ilio-inguinal, so perhaps a bit more extensive)…what was your experience with lymphedema, if any? 

              thanks again…

                    My experience with Dr Andtbacka has been very positive so far. I think Huntsman is good too. I guess I'm just uncovering all possibilities. I fear I'm starting to look like a crazy person on here with all my questions and over-analysis. I guess it's what I do, especially when the stakes are high. 

                    Thanks for your positive words and reply.

                          I am certainly leaning toward doing it. I'm just making sure I understand everything and not just following the advice of one person (who also happens to be a surgeon). It's been presented to me as a choice, and I'm treating it as such, and a serious one. 

                          I appreciate your 2 cents, thank you for giving them!
