SURGERY QUESTION - RECOVERY

Tue, 04/12/2005 - 08:55
My husband had surgery 6 weeks ago. I wanted to know if anyone has had surgery on the right frontal lobe. I wanted to compare notes as to the "after" surgery recovery. His memory is still not great and he finds himself repeating things - We are thrilled that he has only had one grandma seziure since surgery (we were still in hospital) and we believe that was from the swelling of surgery. He is doing remarkable; however, he has had 3 staring seziures. we are thankful for the success so far. We are just curious if anyone has had this type of surgery from this area. What was your recovery? What types of things did you notice after surgery?
