Default Get a second opinion

Hi Raneah,
I hope you can find another Dr. and get a second opinion. I would not wait until Feb. 24th if you are having all these problems. It sounds like your concerns are very valid and you should be worried. Maybe you can call to see if there are any cancellations earlier than your date. Tell them it's an emergency and you are losing some feeling in your leg!
Phylly
