00:00You know, it really depends. We're still figuring it out.
00:04Yeah, so as I said, you can always get the ablation, but
00:08is it the smart thing to do long-term? And I think
00:12when I say long-term, that's also my health, my overall health.
00:16I think also that's for the next years of my career
00:20and all of these things. For now, I think I'm still
00:24processing a lot of it. I thought I was ready and everything
00:28and things, as they pass, I think I understand
00:32more and more what
00:36I feel and how I think I want to go and move
00:40forward. I'm taking it one day at a time still.
00:44That's why I'm already looking for my competitions in the rest of the season.
00:48So there's a lot of
00:52avenues to look at it.

01:00on pain medicine and try to compete. So let's try to fix the problem
01:04and let's see if
01:08that's what the doctor thinks. Finish this season, that's what we're going to do.
01:12We're not going to be doing any risks for my health
01:16and long-term health plans.
01:20We'll definitely take it from there.
