Karen,

Move those appointments and get that second opinion. Knowlage is everything and you don't want to learn something very important to your treatment after the fact when it is to late to act on it.

I know you probably feel it is important to act now and get the surgery done, but the short delay that the second opinion will cause is not enough to make a difference, while the second opinion could make a huge difference in your quality of life for the rest of your life.

You do not want to be in a situation where you are second guessing yourself forever.

hey can always cut but they can never put it back. Get that second opinion.
