Hi Anita and welcome to our family,

the procedures your husband has had are fairly common place now i am sorry to say,and a lot of our members have had them done .Unfortunately a few have had similar complications,but of course with diabetes present the chances of this happening are a lot higher.Lets hope this second go round will be more successful.I am sure you will gets lots of feedback from the guys here and keep us updated on his progress.
