Hi! Here's the odd thing, I called and set up a phone consult with
the dr. I had them write down that I wanted to know exactly what it
was so I could research it on the internet. I stated that I also had
some questions for him. He never called me, so that makes me think
that it isn't to important.
Thanks for the advice.
Chris

him why? If you didn't you should. If there is the slightest
possibility that there could be cancer, I would get them off asap. I
wish you the best in whatever decision you make.
