    Wow jean that's an awful lot of ops in that time scale, especially with uncontrolled hypertension, have they all been for brain surgery, what does her principle GP consider the problem to be stemming from and is the medication not controlling it.

    As for the time scale I don't think anyone can predict that for her but I hope its possible for them to find the correct treatment

    Hi Jean,

    Sorry to hear about your sister's troubles. It all depends on her history and why she had the ops. Can you give us a bit more information?

    Hi Jean, How are you doing?  How is your sister doing? How old is your sister? You?  Family? Is your sister home or in the hospital?  Please post an update when you have time.  Take care and hope to hear from you soon.
