Marie, I am not a "patient" patient either. Could I wait weeks before having something done, probably not. Does it make sense to wait and see if others pop up and then treat them all, yes it does. If your doctors think this is OK, then it's the logical thing to do. How long could I wait...I don't know, probably no longer than a month, if that long. I tend to panic and want things done NOW. You have been such an angel to Ed and to all of us going through this. I can't tell you what to do, just know I am thinking of you and Ed....those pretzels sound fantastic..sherryg683
