No, but I would suggest you get on the internet and check out all you can...........then do what you think is best.......if you don't think this doctor knows what he is talking about, then find another one for a second opinion.....remember, this is your body and you're in control, so learn as much as you can and then armed with knowledge, you can ask great questions to decide what you think is the best thing for you.
Good Luck and hang in there.....take care.
