I think you're doing the right thing. Bluejay. I've had more than a few surgeries that now seem like were "rush jobs" and maybe were blindly agreed to more by my fear than the absolute facts might've called for. I'm about to follow in your footsteps...after 10 years, I have finally decided to have a 2nd opinion. I've always felt that I am part of the treatment team and the final decision is ultimately mine, but I think maybe a change of scenery could do no harm. Try not to "stew" on it for too long, though, as time really is of the essence in just about every OC procedure. Best of luck! Let us know! You're in my prayers.
