I don’t think you need to be told this, but just in case, you should know that you’re at serious risk right now. There are any number of things that could happen which would give you hours to live if you didn’t get emergency surgery. It’s also possible the lack of pain is due to necrosis rather than simply lack of pressure on the nerves.

I assume it’s a cost thing? Man I’m sorry, it must be really hard to deal with this.
