@gingerw, my surgeon had his office schedule me for hospital placement of new graft (diidn't say where) which leads me to believe he doesn't think this one can be saved. Clinic working on a referral to other surgeon in town for 2nd opinion. Sigh.

@kamama94, I send my thoughts and I am thankful that there is a Plan B. My own experience with Plan B's has been good.
Hugs and Hope.
@kamama94 Oh, here is hoping that everything will work out the way it is supposed to. And thinking of your first surgeon, that he is recovered soon to take his place on the front lines again. Meanwhile, peace in your heart, my friend.

@kamama94, Well fiddlesticks on the question of whether or not this graft will work! How long before you know whether or not it is working? Glad that there will be other options and I always welcome a second opinion.
Sending you extra calm and doses of serenity during this waiting period. I'm not very predictable with shedding tears but if you need a good Irish shake of the fist in frustration, I'm available and willing!

I am so disappointed for you, @kamama94. I wish you well with your referral to another surgeon, I pray that he will have some new ideas to help you!
