Asked By:SexxyLexi in Gilbert, AZ

Tomorrow is my surgery and my doctor wants me to have 350cc's and I am NOT very satisfied with that number I'm wanting more like 450cc for a small D look . Am I allowed to just flat out refuse what he says and just get my way or is he allowed to flat out refuse what I request? his main concern is that it's not going to fit in my muscle pocket he says I have a small frame. But I went to other consultations with other doctors and no one else said that would be an issue.  I don't want to be unsatisfied with what I'm paying my money for.  someone please respond please help me
