Thanks Paula-Jane for your concern and reply. I guess I just need to make the appointment and ask the Dr. But I was hoping to know what to ask. I think this happened so quickly, you were right this is a game of bottom of the 9th and 2 strikes. I want to be prepared for the next swing. Thanks again, Sherry
