This team for both the operative and post-operative period includes anesthesiologists, surgeons, renal physicians, endocrinologists, electrophysiologists and highly trained nurses to work in concert for the optimal care of the patient. Diffuse disease patients who previously could not be aided by further surgical intervention now have a reasonable chance of survival with fewer and or minimal symptoms. As you might expect, lifestyle changes are in order for people who undergo this procedure. A and E as well as bioflavonoids are required. This last group includes broccoli, apples and red wine.
Moderate use is encouraged.
