My hammertoe pin is halfway out It's coming out by itself. Will this cause a big problem? I'm scheduled to get it removed soon. Will doctor re-insert it or try a different procedure? I'm sure it has not accomplished what it was suppose too... HELP!

No,he wont try to reinsert it. He will take it out as planned and then probably want to wait several months to assess the result of the surgery. You may have an XRay after the pin is removed to see the Immediate result.
Dont be too impatient...these things take time to settle down.
