NOT what I expected to hear from the Dr...
He looked at Ryan's nose and said that the blood vessels are open with no cartaledge covering them, he said their are several big ones close to the opening of his nose.
He said that when Ryan gets nosebleeds and we pinch it we actually make is worse because we are pinching the blood vessel itself.
He said that we could wait it out but that given the bad nosebleed he has on Friday and his history of them he wants to do surgery and go in and cauterize that whole side, he will go to the hospital and be asleep. Then we will have to deal with the same recovery that dh went through and all the ups and downs... making sure the scab doesn't break and such.
He said that if we don't do it then he could very well get a nosebleed that we can't stop and have to get a nasal packing and get the surgery anyway.
I have been praying about it and I see no choice here.. I am PETRIFIED for my baby and so sick over this.
I can't believe that this is all starting over again.. last January is when all the bad things started.. now Ryan, my Grandmother is having surgery Thursday and my Mom is having health peoblems that is requiring surgery in Feb.
Thank God I am seeing pdoc and tdoc this week... I am going to break... I just CANNOT BELIEVE THAT IT IS STARTING AGAIN.
