Well our visit with Dr. Donaldson in Chicago went well. I was hoping to leave the visit more confident in the treatments. Dr. Donaldson was wonderful and very informative. He stated that there is most likely no way to avoid surgery on Cassie's lip. After the sclero she will need some recontouring done on her lip. He is however concerned that the sclerotherapy could damage her lip tissue and that could leave problems when it comes to surgery. Based upon this information we decided and Dr. Donaldson encouraged us to have her evaluated by the interventional radiologist in Boston. We can see if they agree on treatment type and the possible effects. Lets hope and pray that they feel the same about her treatments......otherwise I will be seeking out a 3rd opinion in New York.
