Jeanie, The Orthopedic doctor says he wouldn't go in. With him it is a wait and see how much it shrinks. I am a very cooperative patient...sometimes maybe too much so as I must appear meek to them...but I have patience to wait as long as I know there will be a good outcome. Not being medically versed I didn't know the correct questions to ask him. I don't know what a vascular surgeon does and to tell you the truth it has become exhausting going to all these doctors. Maybe if you can tell me what they would do will enlighten me some.

I appreciate you and Michelle's input more than you can know! Thank you both!
