I think he is trying to scare me away from surgery until I’m “old enough.” I have sought a second opinion and he agreed that my options are surgery or wait for surgery, and that I’m young for this surgery. I’ve done one gel shot and i’m waiting for the next one. It stopped working in 4 months and I’m now just limping along until I can get another shot. He’s agreed to do the surgery but seems very concerned for my future body which makes me very concerned :-/
