I wrote to MM:
Dear Professor.
I checked confirmation and it seems put wrong IBAN code and got error on my bank reports I have to make transfer again
No problem because I have to pay till tuesday/wednesday - just 2 weeks before surgery.
But I still have a little doubt. I would like to be very concrete. Please read to the end.
On first consultation I told You that I will have bad reaction to any PERSISTENT numbness.
On approach you described me, small zygomatic nerves will be destroyed...and now I reliased we had a little missunderstanding. You told, that most people do not feel any distibrbuances post-op.
I realised too late, that probably they have distirbuances but they do not bother about this, becasue they used to want to change their face for a long time...
Perhaps you can send request to some of your patient about this. If they just do not bother or really do not feel any loss /changes of/in feeling. Unfortunately I think, its first option.
i'm not that case and loss of feeling on the side of the cheek will make discomfort me.
I have a little deal for You Professor. I know You dont like situation like this, so please do not drop my case, becasue I still want to have surgery...
I felt I would be safe in your hands and your are very skilled surgeon
For sure I would like to have decompression surgery especially when you have experience with that. Perhaps it will help and its not risky
When it comes to osteotomy I will make up my mind during our last constulation. I think we should have 3 consultations not only 2. But now its too late
Perhaps rebooking surgery ? its still almost 3 weeks before. Perhaps it will be a chance for other patient who needs to be operated faster.
Maybe You can give me a little consultation via Skype if You use it. I can pay for it.
I just not feel very good about possibility of damaging the nerves. Also do not feel good, becasue I know you will get a little angry at me.
Damaging for 100% during procedure is not the same like low risk of damage (when surgeon try to not damage)
Perhaps You can find another safe approach to save these nerves? Its important for me. Maybe i'm a good candidate to develope a little new method.
if not then please remake plan of the surgery.
Please tell receptionists (or other worker) to make new cost estimation for decompression only just in case.
But I don't know what to do. To pay whole amount of money or wait a while for a recalculation and eventually I will pay more using credit card in hospital just before surgery
I'm afraid of that If I send more then needed, I wil be charged additional strange fee and I wont get back enough of money. Please be understanding
Can you help me. Situation is stressful for me. What should I do ?
If you think that in fact we had a little missunderstanding about one or two issies and its too little time then please make a rebook possible [at least for decompression surgery]
at the same time please think about any new approach for my case to minimalize the risk of numbness
BUT PLEASE DO NOT DROP MY CASE
and I got this from him - dont know what to think ?Dear Sir,
It just does not work your way.
All is discussed 10 times more than with other cases. Nothing changes with more talking.
My consultation lists are booked for 6 months.
If you do not prepay, than the surgery is cancelled for always. I have the right to choose the patients i like to operate. Your mails give me great distress. I hate living up to an operation with paranoia. There is enough other patients who trust me.
So no more emails please. You drive me crazy, which is not good for you!
