I'm really sorry you are going through. We are trying to sell our house. So, I understand the stress you are feeling there.

When in August do you leave? There may still be time for you to go IP before you have to leave and lose your money. You certainly don't want to be traveling in this state. It sounds like you have tremendous respect for you pdoc. Can you call him? Get another appointment and talk honestly about how you think you were wrong when you answered "no" and talk through your options with the travel coming up?

Please keep us posted.
