Complex: Hard to judge and give you a definitive answer on this platform with a sketchy picture, moreover, the decision on which diagnostic procedure to pursue is in the hands of the treating team, I understand the frustration, but trust your treating physicians, your case is complex and requires constant follow up, wish you wellness
