Sorry, I think I'm totally confused. Does exision mean cut, rather than
laser? And if so, why do you say no good doctor will cut? For example,
doesn't Dr. Redwine cut endo. out (and I think he's considered to be
very good)? I definitely want a doctor who does NOT push Lupron, because
I do not want to take it. I wish you best of luck with your surgeries.
