Okay To Wait Before Mass In Abdomen Can Be Removed?
Thank you. my daughter 6 months ago went to the hospital in pain ,heavy bleeding and a very large pertrusion inher abdomin . When I say large it really looked like an alien baby. Well they did a cat scan and told her it might be a hernia. She had no insurance and was sent home to follow up with a surgeon . Now having a five thousand dollar bill she held off and the pertrusion disappeared. She now has insurance and had another attack and went to the ER. She was told she has has a 9 mm mass and she needs to have it removed by a GYN. Her GYN is not in her network so to say the lest it has been an insurance nightmare. This happened three days ago and today they said the problem should be resolved in 24 hrs. Long story short, is there danger in her waiting this long.
Hi. Please mention where is the mass and you say just 9 mm... id it in cm? Where is the mass located ? Mass has to be removed at the earliest for getting rid of the disease and histopathological diagnosis. There may be a danger in waiting.
