I am ok with this approach, it is a good balance of risks and benefits. I really like my doctor - he is an Osteopath and has no problem sitting down and talking/explaining things. He even showed me some of his references that helped make the choice in the "decision tree", so to speak.

My doc is a DO as well, love that hands on approach! Glad your doc is in the "do less" camp, so many seem to want to subject you to every possible test/procedure under the sun.

My boss is a bit concerned that we are taking this approach, and frankly it is proving a little difficult to dial back my stress but I think that would have happened either way. It is challenging for me to let go of things so this gives me a chance to work on that. Frankly, even with a biopsy I would have that problem as a woman in my church had a "false negative" on HER biopsy. So focusing on other things and just breathing a bit. Trying not to stress too much in advance of getting the bill for the last three tests... I know it won't be market rate so THAT helps.
