Yeah, I had that concern about the surgery, being too much, I haven't gotten the chance to dicsuss it at length, we are waiting on the visit with the internist.

Thank you for your response
Well...I could be wrong, I suppose they could do it in-house ----anyone have the answer ????

In any case, I would love to know the %

I think that you need to speak with the Internal Medicine Specialist AND the Ortho Specialist at the same time - to discuss the best way to approach her upcoming LP surgery, possible liver biopsy and the precautions for her possible liver issues. My concern is she is ONLY 2.5 lbs and that's alot for her to have going on I know it can be done, but everything truly has to be double checked and YOU have to be 100% confident in BOTH of the Specialist.
