Considering embolization for a hip, elbow, or shoulder? It helps to walk in with the right questions, not just the first answer you're given. π
Consider asking your provider:
β
Is my pain actually coming from the joint, or somewhere else?
β
What have I already tried, and has it been given enough time to work?
β
Am I a candidate for a minimally invasive option?
β
What does recovery realistically look like for this specific joint?
β
Could this affect my ability to have surgery later, if I ever need it?
The more informed you are, the more confident you'll feel in your healthcare decisions. π
