I know hemangioma surgery is the best option and 100% willing to do it but the way my dr puts it across im scared.he say risks outweigh the benefits. im btn a stone and a hard a rock. dont know how to manage the pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Difficult decision regardless. 2 things may help:1. a referral to a center specializing in complex surgery and 2. A referral to a palliative specialist who can help in managing the pain caused by the tumor.
