Follow-up visit: Schedule a follow-up visit. Discuss your status and ask for info on all you need to know about what to expect and watch for, what to avoid and what to do. Ask if you have choices for treatment or if this will diminish on its own. Take notes - ask for handouts. Don't worry, but learn about this condition. I hope it goes well and that you'll be fine soon.
