I want to thank everyone for their responses. You guys are awesome. Make me feel so much better. Lucky for me, I had the office call miraculously and say they had a cancellation for the MS guy tomorrow morning. Yay! Problem solved, I'll go ahead and start with him since that's what my doc told me to do in the first place and it worked out.

I'm glad ya'll validated my worry about a general. I have not talked to the anesthesiologist, but I am ok cancelling the procedure if they won't budge on that issue.

Thanks!
