Hey Mary, Often times we are our own worst critic. If it helps I think you made a good decision. If you didn't feel comfortable its better you decided to wait because the procedure would have been irriversable.(sp?) Its good news that you are going to see a endo specialist and they can probally save the ovary. Its always natural to be nervous before a surgery, but hopefully when it comes time for surgery with the specialist you will feel better about it.
