We did not go over risks of treatment options and the one favored by the doctor is one that I believed I would be ineligible for. She seemed surprised. Later, I researched the procedure and found that the risks were high and I absolutely was not eligible. That said, she was patient about taking time to consider the other options. I'm scheduled for a diagnostic test to see if I'm a good candidate for one of the other procedures, although I'm pretty sure that I will not choose that even if eligible.
