Yeah, I am kind of leaning toward getting the second opinion from an ENT. I had a great one that removed the left side years ago in Mobile. I have only been in Orlando a couple of years and medical care here is much different than what it was in Mobile. I was thinking about seeing my primary care Dr. and see if she can recommend someone...of course I will do some research before I make an appointment with the EMT. What part of Florida are you in?
I agree that a second opinion is in order. How far are you willing to travel? We have some patient recommended endos, but nothing in Orlando.
I might go so far as to recommend that you look into an ENT. I can give you the name of an excellent one, but he's not in Orlando.
You can also call a few endo's (and/or ENT's) offices and interview the nurse, to get an idea of how that doctor might respond to your issues.
