I have a tear that needs to be scoped. Vin Medic says I need to be in hospital 2-3 days. In the US this is a in and out procedure with no over night stays.

Any advice??

Many thanks

If I remember correctly, Thigv, one of the posters on this forum knows a good surgeon. Maybe send him a PM. He named the doctor on another thread, but I can't find it.

Went to see the above Doctor. Suoer nice, spoke great English and trained in Germany. He agreed there is a tear but wanted to see if a shot of cordasone would work. Wa La it has so far with just a little minor pain with some movement.

Again thanks for the replies
