There is no reason for you to worry. Find out what they are thinking and ask about the scheduling. You have a right and obligation to ask questions, no one will fault you for that.

ColesCountyDem has good advice and is absolutely right about second opinions. BTW, I understand completely about the insurance aspect and I think so would all the Dr.s involved.

Good luck
