Rosemary, thank you for your response. I am just pulling together a list of my concerns for the surgeon for a call with her tomorrow. Do you have any suggested questions both for the nerve block and the liver cyst drain to ask her? I think doing both in a few days will be too much for me. I was told to take one procedure at a time. I was also told by someone that when a liver cyst bursts, it is very painful and that I would have to go to the hospital for pain relief, so fearful of more pain. I am asking to stay overnight if I am in too much pain from the procedure(s). I find that I forget what I want to say when faced with 2-3 doctors. I want to think of the questions before I face the docs. Thank you again, BB
