Hello,

If the pellet damaged the blood vessel your condition should have been far worse. I agree with your Doctor opinion about not removing it because of the possible complications. Anyway, this is a matter that should be discussed with a Neurosurgeon as well.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
